	CWIS - The Fourth World Journal - The Boundaries of Afrikaner Self-Determination by Allen Gabriel by Dr. Richard A. ...
		The boundaries of the Volkstaat and autonomous areas are perceived in the report as both culturally hard and economically soft.
		Geographically, the staged design of a Volkstaat requires initial alterations to at least three provinces and may eventually affect all nine provincial boundaries--a debate the new government is loathe to re-open given the division and conflict that accompanied the working out of the present boundaries.
		The scenario of an independent Volkstaat on the model of the former homelands is politically, geographically, socially, and legally inconceivable.

	Afrikaner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A small group of Afrikaners has settled in the town of Orania, with the goal of ultimately gaining a Volkstaat as the result of a process of Afrikaner demographic consolidation.
		Some Afrikaners feel that they are currently (in the post-1994 South Africa) facing a serious threat to their continued existence as a people, due to the relatively small population of Afrikaners, the dominance of the English language and the lack of any real political power.
		The Freedom Front is also leading the Volkstaat initiative and is closely associated to the small town of Orania.

	Orania - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Orania is a South African town that is located along the Orange River in the arid Karoo region of its Northern Cape province.
		It is the first existing realisation of the Volkstaat concept (indeed, Orania is at the easternmost point of an earlier proposed Volkstaat area in the Northern Cape province) and is unique among South African towns in being the the only all-Afrikaner enclave in South Africa.
		Some fear that as time passes, the Orania community will grow into a greater Volkstaat as proposed by the Volkstaat movement and attempt to "secede" itself from South Africa.

		The vision of the future is a new nation for the Afrikaner people by 2015 A.D. that has peacefully became a separate nation from South Africa.

	ROBBERTZE: PARLIAMENTARY MEDIA BRIEFING, AUG '98
		In terms of the Accord signed between the Freedom Front, the ANC and the former National Party Government, the Council was founded as a constitutional mechanism to enable, through its research the supporters of self-determination for the Afrikaner, to promote their cause through constitutional channels.
		Another important achievement of the Volkstaat Council is its contribution towards the internationalisation of the case for Afrikaner self-determination.
		It was never intended that the Volkstaat Council should become a permanent body with an indefinite life cycle and it was not the responsibility of the Council to establish a Volkstaat as such.

		Propagated initially by the Boerestaat Party, and later popularised by the AWB and other smaller organisations, was the view that the Boer republics were robbed of their independence by the British during the Anglo-Boer War of 1899–1902.
		In theory the demands of the supporters of the volkstaat model are not fundamentally different to the demands for national self-determination of other stateless peoples, such as the Kurds, the Tamils in Sri Lanka or the Chechens in the Russian Federation.
		A weakness of the volkstaat model, based on the Boer Republics, is that Afrikaners or Boers do not constitute a natural majority within the proposed borders of such a state.

		Two out of three respondents said that they were against the idea of a Volkstaat in CSVR survey, which was significantly more than in July 1993, suggesting that support for the Volkstaat has dropped during this time.

		Those who in 1996 said that they would consider moving to a Volkstaat are mainly Afrikaans speaking males, who are supporters of the Conservative Party or Afrikaner Freedom Front, hold racist views (24%; slightly racist: 6%, non racist: 0%) and are not content with the new democratic South Africa.
