South Africa's Struggle for Human Rights EPUB

EPUB
Description
Saul Dubow's South Africa's Struggle for Human Rights contextualises and explains the current concerns about rights and constitutionalism, as well as the populist reaction against the compromises or deals involved in the elite pact which brought about our New South Africa. The mid-1980s played a significant role as it is the time when the apartheid government and the ANC 'discovered' human rights at precisely the same time. African nationalist, liberalist and republican traditions were fragmented and episodic, but they help to explain why rights discourse and constitutionalism gained broad acceptance in the last decade of the twentieth century, and so aligned South Africa with global trends.
