The land was thus given by God to the Voortrekkers, and, where they had to, they "bought" the land either with money or with their blood. The "swart gevaar" black threat with its communist support was engaged in a "total onslaught" from inside and outside the country and government embedded society in the war machine.
This was also the view of some of the perpetrators who were interviewed.

Sesanti also recognises the ambiguity of the term: Stage 7 is extermination, that is the mass killing of victims not considered human by their killers.
When a situation occurs which corresponds to a given archetype, that archetype becomes activated and a compulsiveness appears, which like an instinctual drive, gains its way against all reason and will, or else produces a conflict of pathological dimensions Hook highlights in particular two figures in post-colonial studies whose writings and political objectives were explicitly, powerfully and strategically psychological in nature, namely Frantz Fanon and Steve Biko.
