Nongqai Abstract
Nongqai, a magazine dedicated to preserving South Africa’s national security history, has undergone a restructuring, with Brigadier Hennie Heymans appointed as the new chief editor. Previously, Heymans served as executive editor, a role now taken over by a new appointee. Heymans is recognized for his significant contributions in creating a balanced narrative of the pre-1994 South African security forces, countering one-sided and negative portrayals that dominated post-1994 narratives. Through Nongqai, he revived a vital collection of source material, ensuring a broader perspective on the past that is indispensable for historians. The magazine has served as a platform for veterans to share their oral histories, preventing these accounts from being lost, and has published insightful articles and special editions focused on specific topics. Despite lacking publishing expertise and financial resources, Heymans single-handedly managed the magazine’s production for years, later joined by Dr. Willem Steenkamp and, more recently, Henning van Aswegen. Nongqai stands as a testament to Heymans’ selfless dedication to historical truth, driven by his loyalty to the South African Police and appreciation for the security forces’ role in stabilizing the country during challenging times. The magazine, guided by the credo: “To preserve the past without living in it,” remains a trusted, unbiased source of historical documentation, reflecting Heymans’ integrity and passion.
Skrywers & Boeke
DIE BURO IS BY IMPRIMATUR UITGEWERS, PRETORIA BESKIKBAAR: Mandy@Imprimatur.co.za
- Boekbeskrywing: DIE BURO
In Die Buro beskryf Henning van Aswegen die lewe en leed van Genl. Hendrik van den Bergh en sy tydgenote wat in 1963 Republikeinse Intelligensie (RI), en die Buro vir Staatsveiligheid in 1969 gestig het. Die Lang Generaal is ʼn historiese figuur wat onkreukbaar geglo het dat die Suid-Afrikaanse Kommunistiese Party (SAKP), nie oor die reg beskik het om Suid-Afrika se toekoms eiehandig te bepaal nie. Manne van Staal is nie populêre revisionistiese geskiedskrywing oor die Buro vir Staatsveiligheid nie; dit is die verhaal van wat agter die skerms gebeur het, en hoe hierdie historiese gebeure die verloop van die geskiedenis in Suid-Afrika beduidend beïnvloed het.
Henning van Aswegen is die skrywer van die topverkoper Spioenmeesters (Kraal Uitgewers), en ‘n intelligesnie historikus wat spioenasieverhale uit Suid-Afrika se geskiedenis beskryf en ontleed. Van sy ander boeke is The Daisy Spy Ring, The Spymasters of South Africa, en Russian Espionage in South Africa. Henning van Aswegen is ‘n afgetrede dosent in Intelligensiekunde aan die Nasionale Intelligensie Akademie (NIA), Pretoria.
