- Description: This study analyses the modern twenty-first century travel writing of Paul Theroux’s Dark Star Safari (2003) to reveal its sustained impetus towards colonial discursive constructions of Africa. In doing so, it will examine the continuation of colonial methods and techniques of literary representation in travel texts by illustrating the early ‘images’ of Africa and Africans as they appear in Henry M. Stanley’s non-fictional travel text Through the Dark Continent (1878) and Joseph Conrad’s fictional travel novella Heart of Darkness (1899). With the purpose of producing a critical literary analysis, this study will employ discourse analysis to interrogate the implications of the continued employment of colonial rhetoric and language by Theroux in his representations and portrayals of Africa and African citizens. It has been found that there is an unproblematised acceptance – even reverie – of colonial sentiment and nostalgia evident in representations of Africa in modern travel literature. Literary representations of this nature continue to portray Africa as the ‘savage’, ‘backward’, ‘violent’ and ‘inferior’ continent that it had signified to travel writers during the colonial epoch. Africans, as they are portrayed in this narrative tradition, are ascribed the same denotations where their subjectivities, individualities, cultures, beliefs, ideologies and personhood are encapsulated under the conceptualisation of ‘darkness’ that signifies ‘African’ as inferior to the West, Europe and North America, and therefore subject to derogation. By demonstrating the violent and damaging nature of these representations, as they remain in twenty-first century travel literature, this dissertation hopes to initiate a dialogue around the genre’s preservation of preconceptions and prejudices that continue to plague Africa and its people. This is possible through literary critique that exposes dated colonial racism and prejudice that appears in the travel literature of the post-independent age in which we now find ourselves.

Hierdie studie betrek aspekte van woordeboeke, wat beteken dat dit binne die leksikografie as dissipline val. Hierdie dissipline is voortdurend besig om te ontwikkel en dek ’n groot area, aangesien verskillende gebruikers verskillende woordeboeke benodig afhangende van spesifieke behoeftes. Daar word aanvaar dat woordeboeke gebruikersvriendelik moet wees en dus op die behoeftes van die teikengebruikers afgestem moet wees en om dit te bepaal, moet die funksies waarvoor die woordeboek gebruik gaan word in ag geneem word. In hierdie studie word die belangrike funksies van begrip, produksie en vertaling as kategorieë vir samestelling gekoppel aan datatipes en strukture. Die rasionaal van hierdie studie is die gebrek aan ’n sistematiese en kritiese studie oor die rol wat die funksies begrip, produksie en vertaling speel by die samestelling van woordeboeke. Die doelwit van hierdie studie is om kriteria vir die inkleding van woordeboekstrukture in terme van woordeboekfunksies tydens die ontwerp en samestelling van woordeboeke (beide gedrukte en elektroniese woordeboeke) vas te stel. Die uitgangspunt is dat dit moontlik is om dit te kan doen en om daardeur ’n raamwerk te skep vir die maak van ’n woordeboek, wat die nuutste teorieë (die funksieteorie, linguistiese teorie en die bruikbaarheidsbenadering van die inligtingstegnologie) in ag neem. Hierdie navorsing is deur middel van ’n literatuurstudie ondersoek en die kriteria is aan die hand van praktiese voorbeelde toegelig.

- Description: Limited research exists, both internationally and in the South African context, on the use of basketball as tool for youth development through sport. In almost all sport-based youth development programs, the desired sport is football and occasionally rugby. Developing the youth is crucial for the development of a nation and the United Nations has highlighted the progress sport has had as a development tool over the past 20 years. South Africa has recently received international acclaim by becoming the focal point of the National Basketball Associations (NBA) presence in Africa by hosting the last three NBA Africa games. South Africa’s Eastern Cape province was the home of elite basketball in the early eighties and is no stranger to the sport of basketball. The study aimed to explore the possibility of using basketball as a tool for youth development in Nelson Mandela Bay in the Eastern Cape. The study employed a mixed methods research approach that was explorative, descriptive and contextual in design. The empirical data was collected by means of a questionnaire distributed to target basketball players in the Nelson Mandela Bay area. While the data analysis and literature favoured basketball as a suitable tool to be used in sport-based youth development programs, there were limitations with respect to the number of female participants in the study. It was recommended that further research be considered within this field of study and on a wider scale, in an effort to expand the knowledge base on youth development through basketball across South Africa.

- Description: The Internet has made it feasible for people to establish and maintain romantic relationships online. Research findings indicate that high levels of intimacy are often experienced online, and individuals find these relationships to be meaningful, with high levels of relationship satisfaction reported. Some of these online romantic relationships are, however, terminated at some stage, leading to a painful experience. Limited research has been conducted on the experience of terminated online romantic relationships and coping strategies employed. The primary aim of this study was therefore to explore and describe young adults’ experiences and coping strategies following the termination of a significant online romantic relationship. Lazarus and Folkman’s psychological stress and coping theory and relevant literature were utilised to conceptualise the study. A qualitative approach was employed in order to meet the aim of the study. The study utilised purposive and snowball sampling. The participants included nine undergraduate students at Nelson Mandela University and one working adult, all of whom met the inclusion criteria. Data was obtained through in-depth interviews, and the collected data was analysed using thematic analysis. Based on the findings of the study, the experience of a terminated online romantic relationship has an adverse impact on individuals’ overall functioning. However, there seem to be coping strategies that are effective in overcoming the turmoil caused by online romantic relationship termination. This study has therefore generated an understanding of young adults’ experiences and coping strategies following the termination of a significant online romantic relationship.

- Description: Harmonious work relations can be achieved when worker involvement and participation structures are used effectively to ensure that workers‟ interests and rights are addressed. Literature has established the relationship between employee participation and worker satisfaction with working conditions. However, the extent to which employees are happy at work is also affected by their social and living conditions. It is therefore important to know the worker levels of satisfaction with participation on issues that affect them, and if the channels are being used to create an enabling environment. The objective of the study was to look at the influence employee participation has on worker satisfaction with work-life and workers satisfaction with social and living conditions, and the relationship between worker satisfaction with work-life and satisfaction with social and living conditions. The research questions were structured around this premise. The research was quantitative and used a 5-Likert scale using the three factors of employee participation, social and living conditions, and working life. The major findings revealed that there is strong relationship between worker satisfaction with employee participation and worker satisfaction with working life. Social and living conditions through an Exploratory Factor Analysis divided into exterior and interior social and living conditions. Working life was strongly correlated with interior social and living conditions.

- Description: This study uncovers and critiques the various ways in which Eben Venter‘s Trencherman (2008), Lauren Beukes‘ Moxyland (2008) and Lily Herne‘s Deadlands (2011) manifest an engagement with socio-political expressions of whiteness within post-apartheid South Africa. These overtly dystopian depictions of a country twenty-two years into its democracy reflect a level of anxiety felt by white South Africans attempting to negotiate the change in their socio-political circumstances. Within the alternate post-apartheid South Africa of Trencherman, whiteness comes to the fore as a socially constructed albatross preventing engagement with the trenchant effects of apartheid, as well as a grotesque bulging mass of unearned privilege embodied by a descendent of an Afrikaans farmer. Moxyland and Deadlands, however, portray a less overt engagement with whiteness by foregoing a critique of prevalent racial inequities. Instead, both authors favour an interrogation of South Africa‘s deleterious class hierarchy in settings that are fantastically futuristic and dystopic. This lends to my argument that the genre of speculative dystopian fiction has been sought out as an ideal space for white South African writers to (safely) deal with white anxieties. It is also pivotal to place these texts alongside one another to examine the ways in which white writers deal with whiteness as a marker of social privilege within the South African socio-political landscape. The theory of whiteness and the theories surrounding dystopian fiction will be used as integral theoretical frameworks for this study.

- Description: While many governments and organisations across the globe have programmes in place to control flood disasters, the challenges, unpreparedness and vulnerability to flooding in many parts of the world persist. This study used the low-lying area of Missionvale township in Nelson Mandela Bay, Eastern Cape, South Africa as a case study to investigate the extent of the vulnerability of informal settlement dwellers to flooding, and to understand how the community deals with and recovers from severe flood disasters. The study adopted both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies. The empirical data for the study was obtained through a survey of 90 residents of the area, as well as interviews with the members of the community. Fieldwork and observations were also conducted. These focused on examining the area in terms of disaster relief. Secondary data was obtained through a literature review as well as a review of legislative frameworks. The findings indicate that since 1994, the government has put in place a disaster management system but the system still needs to be reinforced as periodic severe flooding continues to destroy properties and infrastructure in many communities. Crime as well as the emergence of water-borne diseases are negative spin-offs of these disasters. The research elaborates on the coping strategies of the community to floods and makes recommendations on vulnerability and coping strategies to floods in low-income settlements in South Africa. With climate change likely to aggravate flood disasters, it is recommended that the policy directions need stakeholders to improve disaster preparedness, provide flood measures to houses and storm water drainage, develop early warning systems and improve community participation in disaster preparedness planning and efforts. In addition, it is crucial to improve post-disaster responses such as service delivery and support for the flood victims with needed resources and rebuilding of homes and lives.

- Description: Olu phando luza kuthi lugxile kuphononongo lwentsingiselo efihlakeleyo ekusetyenzisweni kolwimi kwiincwadi ezikhethiweyo zesiXhosa. Isizathu sokusebenzisa ezi ncwadi kukubona ukuba ababhali bazo babe nendlela ethile ethi izalane ekubhaleni iincwadi zabo. Ikakhulu aba babhali baza kutyhilwa kungekudala baphume izandla ekusebenziseni ulwimi oluntsonkothileyo kwaye ekungelula kulowo uzifundayo ukukhawuleza ayazi intsingiselo. Loo nto iyodwa iye yakhokelela ekubeni umphandi abe nomdla ekucubunguleni le ntsingiselo kwezi ncwadi zabo. Ezona zinto zingundoqo uphando oluza kuthi lugxininise kuyo, lulwimi kuba lulo olungundoqo wolu phando nangona uphando lona luza kuqwalasela intsingiselo efihlakeleyo. Le ntsingiselo iza kuqwalaselwa kusetyenziswa ulwimi. Ulwimi sesona sixhobo siphuhlisa ngalo iingcamango ezingundoqo zentsingiselo efihlakeleyo. Ukuba asinakulusebenzisa ulwimi, oyena nobangela wokubhala awusoze uphunyezwe luphando. Yile nto uphando kunyanzelekile ukuba lungene nzulu kulwimi, ingakumbi kwisimantiki yona ijongene nentsingiselo. Uphando luza kubetha nje koomofu kumasuntswana elingwistiki angala, ifonetiki, ifonoloji, imofoloji, isimantiki, isintaksi nepragmatiki njengoko kufuneke lujongisise ulwimi ngokubanzi. Luphinde lujonge intsingiselo engundoqo nentsingiselo efihlakeleyo yamagama kwisivakalisi kodwa lona uphando lube lujolise ekutyhileni intsingiselo efihlakeleyo kwiincwadi ezikhethiweyo. Owona ndoqo kukujonga iintsingiselo ezimbini ezahlukeneyo kulwimi. Kukho intsingiselo yolwimi ubani anakho ukuyijonga njengoko eyiva okanye eyibona kuphinde kubekho intsingiselo ethi ifihlakale leyo ke ubani angasayi kukhawuleza ayibone de abe kanti uzikisa ukucinga. Uphando luza kukekelela kwiintsingiselo ezimbolo-mbini kuba lufumanisa ukuba igama elinye liyakwazi ukutshintsha intsingiselo yonke yesivakalisi. Koko kubalulekile ukuba uphando luchaphazele oomabizwafane noomabizwahluke kuba bangayijika intsingiselo yesivakalisi. Kwakhona uphando luza kujonga indlela yentsingiselo apho isivakalisi siye sivakale ngendlela ethile ezindlebeni zalowo ufunda loo tekisi, abe umbhali engajolisanga kuloo mxholo umfundi yena awuve ngendlela yakhe. Kolu phando kuyanyanzeleka kucutyungulwe indlela ababhali abalusebenzisa ngayo ulwimi olufihlakeleyo kwiincwadi ezikhethiweyo. Ezi ntsingiselo zifihlakeleyo zingavezwa ngeendlela ezininzi ezizezi; imifanekiso ntelekelelo/imifanekiso ngqondweni, ngemiqondiso, izigqebelo, amaphupha, indalo, uphawu nezafobe ezithile. Zonke ezi mpawu zikhankanyiweyo ngentla zizo eziza kuthi zijongwe kwezi ncwadi zaba babhali. Isimiyotiki yona kuza kuthi kudlulwe kuyo kuba yona nesimantiki ziyathungelana asikwazi ukuthetha ngentsingiselo efihlakeleyo yolwimi sijike siyishiye isimiyotiki. La macandelo kuza kucaciswa ukubonisa imvelaphi yolwimi kodwa kungagxilwanga kuwo.

- Description: Twenty-three years into our new democracy the government is still to address the challenges of insecure land tenure in one of the former Bantustans, Transkei. South Africa still has a dual system of land rights, although addressing land rights and accessing land is a constitutional imperative. The study examines the state of communal land and the extent to which unresolved communal land affects development of the area. The study also examines how insecure tenure in communal land can be an impediment to development to some extent. The key research question, which underpins the study, relates to the absence of legislation that deals with securing the land rights of the people in the rural areas: Can South Africa, as a unitary state, continue to have a dual system of tenure rights. What is the cost of the delay in taking the correct decisions of securing tenure rights for people in the communal areas. The antithesis of having people with uncertain land rights in the communal areas, while people in the urban areas have land rights that are legally recognized, is a cause for concern in a new democratic dispensation. The aim of the study is to assess how unresolved land tenure has affected development in the former Transkei. The government is addressing the matter albeit not much progress has been made to this day. Finally, the importance of securing land tenure rights for communities in the former Transkei will go a long way in addressing the legacy of apartheid, the land question. Securing communal land rights will also go a long way in addressing problems associated with development of this land.
