afrikander bond - Afrikander Bond
afrikander bond - Association of Afrikanders, i.e. Dutchmen born in S. Africa, formed in British South Africa in 1880. Us object was to secure the independence of the country, "a united South Africa under its own flag." It held its first congress in 1882, and its leader was J. H. Hofmeyr. In time it became less hostile to British rule, but it was supported by the more aggressive section of the Dutch population, and during the war of 1899-1902 it sympathised with the Boers. After the war the Bond was reorganized, and its members, aiming at an extension of Dutch influence, but favouring federation under the British crown, shared in the Union negotiations of 1910. See South Africa: History.
