Author’s Note I learned such a great deal from this entire honors capstone project, that all the knowledge I have acquired can hardly be covered by what I wrote in these 50 pages. I learned so much more that I was not able to share both about Namibia and myself. I can now claim that I am knowledgeable about nearly all areas of Namibian history and life. I certainly am no expert, but after all of this research I can certainly consider myself reliable. I have never had such an extensive knowledge before of one academic area as a result of a school project. I also learned a lot about myself through this project. I learned how I can motivate myself to work, and I learned how I perform when I have to organize such a long and complicated paper, just to name a couple of things. The strange inability to be able to include everything I learned from doing this project is the reason for some of the more random appendices at the end, as I have a passion for both numbers and trivia.

  • South Africa
    <*x>&&<>Q&$>ee$>Q4><><>&&i<>4><><i^^ South Africa UNION OF SOUTH AFRICA HE political tension of the previous three years in the Union of South TAfrica (see articles on South Africa in the AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK, Vols. 51, 52 and 53) broke, during the period under review, into a major constitutional crisis. A struggle began between the legislature and the judi- ciary over the "entrenched clauses" of the South Africa Act, which estab- lished the Union, and over the validity of a law passed last year by Daniel Francois Malan's Nationalist Government to restrict the franchise of "Col- ored" voters in Cape Province in contravention of these provisions. Simul- taneously, non-European (nonwhite) representative bodies started a passive resistance campaign against racially discriminatory legislation enacted by the present and previous South African governments. Resulting unsettled condi- tions in the country combined with world-wide economic trends to produce signs of economic contraction in the Union. The developing political and racial crisis brought foreign correspondents to report at first hand upon conditions in South Africa. Not all their reports were objective: some were characterized by exaggeration and distortion, and some by incorrect data. This applied particularly to charges of Nationalist anti-Semitism made in some reports. E. J. Horwitz, chairman of the South African Jewish Board of Deputies (central representative body of South Afri- can Jewry) in an interview published in Die Transvaler of May 16, 1952, specifically refuted as "devoid of all truth" allegations of such anti-Semitism, made on May 5, 1952, in the American news magazine Time.

EXPORTING SOUTH AFRICA'S SOCIAL RIGHTS JURISPRUDENCE Eric C. Christiansent I. Introduction The South African Constitution and its early jurisprudence have been dis- cussed extensively among comparative constitutional law scholars and other aca- demics. Frequently, the Constitution has been described as a model document for the domestic protection of human rights, and the South African Constitutional Court, the highest court in post-apartheid South Africa, has often been lauded by political progressives and human rights activists for advancing the cause of equality and justice. One of the most distinctive elements of South Africa's jurisprudence has been its willingness to adjudicate socio-economic rights in addition to traditional civil and political rights. While the advancement of social welfare as a whole has clearly proceeded at a far slower pace than political equality, the Constitutional protection of social rights and its enforcement by the Court continues to inspire social justice advocates in their work within South Africa and abroad.

  • The.South West African "Terrorism Trial" Continues
    The.south West African "Terrorism Trial" Continues: THE APPEAL CASE Last February, 33 South West Africans (Namibians) were sentenced to im­ prisonment for violation of South Africa's Terrorism Act. On September 25 and 26, an appeal was heard in the Appellate Division Court in Bloem­ fontein, South Africa, on the legal question of whether or not the validity of the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court in Pretoria ( which tried the men) could be challenged, No decision is expected for another month. In No­ vember judgement on a separate appeal by 11 of the defendents, against the severity of their sentences, will be heard in the same court. An analysis by international la.w professor Richard Falk, who was in court when the Namibians were sentenced, has stated: The nature of e.partheid as a system gives opponents no alternative but violent challenge ••• statutory stan­ dards are so sweeping as to deny a defense for anyone the Government is seriously interested in convicting. The statute (Terrorism Aet) contains a broad definition of what constitutes terrorism and gives the State great latitude in gathering evidence and confessions. Peopl.e are not brought to trial until they have already confes­ sed the crime for which they are accused ••• The rea.l trial and the real criminal conviction occurs within the prison ••• The terrorist trial itself is extraordinarily artificial. The trial is a sequence of legal forms that culminate in reaching a predetermined result that can bf varied only slightly by what happens in the Court • • • • The Terrorism Trial The trial evoked world attention and condemnation from the United Nations, churches, eminent jurist,s, and editorial columns.
