Ann Arbor, MI: Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research [distributor], 2004. Scope of Study Summary: The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between truth acceptance and reconciliation among South Africans during and since the political transition from Apartheid to democracy. The study investigated the extent to which South Africans participated in the truth as promulgated by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and the degree to which they were "reconciled." The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) was based on the Promotion of National Unity and Reconciliation Act of 1995. The TRC investigated past gross human rights violations and granted amnesty to individuals in exchange for full and public disclosure of information related to these crimes. The hypothesis that truth acceptance leads to reconciliation was tested in this research. Data were collected through a rigorous and systematic survey of South Africans. Nearly all relevant segments of the South African population were included in the sample, as well as representative subsamples of at least 250 respondents of most major racial/ethnic/linguistic groups. Questions about the TRC investigated respondent awareness, knowledge, and approval of the activities of the TRC. Respondents were asked for their opinions on the effectiveness of the TRC in its efforts to provide a true and unbiased account of South Africa's history and in awarding compensation to those who suffered abuses under the Apartheid regime. Other questions about the TRC asked respondents how important it was to find out the truth about the past and achieve racial reconciliation. Demographic variables include age, marital status, education level, and employment status.

  • Article Differing Interpretations of Reconciliation in South Africa
    Article Differing interpretations of reconciliation in South Africa: a discussion of the home for all campaign1 Sally Matthews [email protected] Abstract The theme of reconciliation remains an important one in South African politics. The issue of reconciliation was recently highlighted by South African Human Rights Commission chairperson, Jody Kollapen. According to Kollapen, in South Africa we have a problematic narrow interpretation of reconciliation, one that presents reconciliation and transformation as being in opposition to one another. This paper explores some of the debates about reconciliation as a process and then relates these to the Home for All Campaign. This Campaign was aimed at encouraging white South Africans to acknowledge the injustices of the past and to commit themselves to healing divisions and reducing inequalities in contemporary South Africa. It conceived of reconciliation as a process in which the onus is on white South Africans to take the initiative in reconciling with black South Africans. The Campaign received much publicity and provoked debate but never managed to gain the support of a significant number of white South Africans. In this paper, I explore the reasons for the Campaign’s failure to meet all of its objectives, relating this to contemporary South African discourse on reconciliation. I argue that the Campaign’s interpretation of reconciliation was valuable and necessary and that it remains imperative in South Africa that white South Africans critically reflect upon past and present privileges and take the initiative in processes of inter-racial reconciliation. More than fifteen years after the end of apartheid the topic of post-apartheid inter-racial reconciliation in South Africa remains pertinent.

Your rights’. Johan van der Vyver, who is so much more than a run-of-the-mill lecturer in law, had been the first person to kindle in me an interest in human rights. In the lectures on Interfaculty Philosophy, Willem de Klerk, a mentor, taught me something about the coherence of apparently contradicting concepts. Marinus Wiechers, a national and international icon in public law and a source of inspiration to many law students, took the trouble to talk to me for many hours over many cups of coffee on how to embark on this challenge and how to hone my thoughts.

    Shifting identities: An exploration of the possibilities for a syncretic Afrikaans theatre by means of three case studies – Hex (2003), Lady Anne (2007), Ekspedisies (2008). by HEIKE GEHRING (13G0005) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Doctorate in Philosophy in the Department of Drama RHODES UNIVERSITY Supervisor: Professor Anton Krueger January 2016 1 Dedicated to my parents, Erwin and Martina Gehring (née Gerber). 2 Acknowledgements I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the following people: My supervisor, Professor Anton Krueger, for his invaluable guidance and support; Prof Gary Gordon for his ongoing inspiration and his help in giving life to Lady Anne and Ekspedisies; The collaborators (performers, designers, technicians, administrators) who have been involved in the creation of Hex, Lady Anne and Ekspedisies; The teaching and support staff at the Rhodes Drama department who have, in various capacities, made it possible for me to undertake this project; Willem Jansen for his extraordinary contribution to both Hex and Ekspedisies; Tim Huisamen for all his support; Mindy Stanford for editing; Ruth Longridge for proofreading; Ella van Tonder for initial translations; Gerhard de Lange for administrative help; My family – Erwin, Martina, Silke and Imke Gehring – for their unwavering support. 3 ABSTRACT This thesis investigates the possibilities for syncretic Afrikaans language theatre within a post- 1994 South African society. The research sets out to explore in what manner theatre can be language-specific, while at the same time being able to cross language contexts. This exploration is driven by the wish to develop strategies for creating Afrikaans theatre that is able to reflect on a society “united in diversity”.
