dc.description.abstractENGLISH ABSTRACT: The following dissertation offers an investigative history of the transformation of two New World wine producers during the Second World War. Notable changes in the South African wine industry will be compared to that of California. The Second World War fundamentally altered technology, production, marketing, distribution, export capabilities, structure and consumption in the above-mentioned wine industries. Using the Union of South Africa as a point of departure, it will be shown how the War was both a predicament and an opportunity. This is by no means an extensive enquiry into these two wine industries in this period. Instead, it serves as a contribution to the miraculous and bottomless vat that is wine history.en_ZA
dc.description.abstractAFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die volgende tesis bied ’n ondersoekende geskiedenis van die transformasie van twee Nuwe Wêreld-wynindustrieë gedurende die Tweede Wêreld Oorlog. Belangrike veranderinge in die Suid Afrikaanse wynindustrie in hierdie tyd sal vergelyk word met dié van Kalifornië. Die Tweede Wêreld Oorlog het beide die genoemde wynindustrieë wesenlik geaffekteer in terme van tegnologie, produksie, bemarking, distribusie, uitvoervermoëns, struktuur en verbruik. Deur die Unie van Suid Afrika te gebruik as ʼn vertrekpunt, sal daar gewys word hoe die oorlog beide ʼn kwessie en ʼn geleentheid was. Dit is geensins ʼn omvattende studie van die twee wynindustrieë nie, maar dien liewer as ’n bydrae tot die wonderlike en bodemlose vaatjie van wyngeskiedenis.af_ZA
