Nach Teilnahme am Forschungsseminar „Rethinking Nationalism“ an der Universität Tel Aviv sowie Forschungsaufenthalten in Südafrika und Simbabwe folgte 1996 die Habilitation ebenfalls in Freiburg bei Wolfgang Reinhard[1] mit einer Schrift über den radikalen Nationalismus der weißen „Afrikaaner“ (Buren) und die Geschichte der Ossewabrandwag.[2]
