This thesis will discuss the production of munitions of war in South Africa and Zimbabwe as a contribution to the study of the effects of the Second World War on Africa. The thesis will argue that South Africa was not well prepared for the industrial war effort mainly because there were few large factories which could be readily converted to munitions production. Such factories had to be built from scratch. Machinery for these factories had to be imported or made locally at the expense of quality. 2015-01-01T12:49:56Z 2015-01-01T12:49:56Z 2000 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10878 eng application/pdf Department of Historical Studies Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
