As common factor "Human Rights" proved to be a suitable key to unlock the history of the theology of apartheid ("evangelie van volksvryhede") of the Afrikaans churches, the theology of civilisation ("gospel of co- peration") of the English churches and the theology of liberation ("gospel of humanisation") of the Black church movement in an impartial and systematical way.AfrikaansFaculty of Theology, University of PretoriaDutch Reformed Church (South Africa)Nederduitse Gereformeerde Kerk -- Political activityChurch and social problems -- South AfricaRace relations -- Religious aspects -- ChristianityHuman rights -- Religious aspects -- Protestant churchesSouth Africa -- Church historyApartheid -- South Africa -- Religious aspectsArticle
