Safrica Page 1 of 42 Recent Reports Support HRW About HRW Site Map May 1995 Vol. 7, No.3 SOUTH AFRICA THREATS TO A NEW DEMOCRACY Continuing Violence in KwaZulu-Natal INTRODUCTION For the last decade South Africa's KwaZulu-Natal region has been troubled by political violence. This conflict escalated during the four years of negotiations for a transition to democratic rule, and reached the status of a virtual civil war in the last months before the national elections of April 1994, significantly disrupting the election process. Although the first year of democratic government in South Africa has led to a decrease in the monthly death toll, the figures remain high enough to threaten the process of national reconstruction. In particular, violence may prevent the establishment of democratic local government structures in KwaZulu-Natal following further elections scheduled to be held on November 1, 1995. The basis of this violence remains the conflict between the African National Congress (ANC), now the leading party in the Government of National Unity, and the Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP), the majority party within the new region of KwaZulu-Natal that replaced the former white province of Natal and the black homeland of KwaZulu. Although the IFP abandoned a boycott of the negotiations process and election campaign in order to participate in the April 1994 poll, following last minute concessions to its position, neither this decision nor the election itself finally resolved the points at issue. While the ANC has argued during the year since the election that the final constitutional arrangements for South Africa should include a relatively centralized government and the introduction of elected government structures at all levels, the IFP has maintained instead that South Africa's regions should form a federal system, and that the colonial tribal government structures should remain in place in the former homelands. -

Executive Summary: Uthungulu Coastal Management Programme Introduction the Uthungulu Coast Is a Vital and Complex Asset of the Uthungulu District
Executive Summary: uThungulu Coastal Management Programme Introduction The uThungulu coast is a vital and complex asset of the uThungulu district. Along its length of only 100km it contains significant service infrastructure, Africa’s largest port (volume of cargo handled), major mining operations, large industrial operations, extensive sugar cane and timber plantations, prawn fisheries and prawn aquaculture operations, tourism businesses, wilderness/conservation areas, subsistence agriculture and natural resource harvesting, impoverished urban settlements, traditional rural settlements, and affluent urban and suburban settlements. In order to accommodate this diverse mix of human activity, harness the coastal assets and services in an efficient and equitable manner, and ensure the sustainable development of the coast and its people, integrated planning and management is required. As a result the uThungulu District commissioned this project to develop a Coastal Management Programme for the uThungulu Coast. Overview of the uThungulu Coast Natural Features Offshore from the uThungulu Coastline is the Agulhas current sweeping warm water (20 – 26oC) southwards from Mozambique. This tropical water is generally low in nutrients. This current, together with uThungulu’s geographic position dictates its climate – warm, humid and generally quite wet in summer. Inshore currents tend to flow from south to north in the opposite direction to the Agulhas. The shoreline along which these currents move is generally straight and sandy with no sheltered marine bays, prominent headlands or protective islands. The wind, currents and straightness of the shoreline sets up a high-energy environment that limits use. The inshore currents also move vast quantities of coastal sand in a northerly direction. The impact of interrupting this sand movement is apparent on the beaches north of the Richards Bay port entrance, which suffer continual “sand starvation” and erode. -
