  • In South Africa: Redress and Checks and Balances?
    THE FUNCTIONING OF OMBUDSMAN (PUBLIC PROTECTOR) IN SOUTH AFRICA: REDRESS AND CHECKS AND BALANCES? Moses MONTESH Abstract Senior lecturer, Department of Police Practice, The first South African Ombudsman appointed College of Law, School of Criminal Justice, in 1979 in terms of the Advocate-General Act University of South Africa 118 of 1979, as amended by Advocate-General Amendment Act 55 of 1983, was known as the Tel.: +27 11 471 2066/3007 Advocate-General. The need for this office was E-mail: [email protected] apparent after the facts about the Information Scandal had come to light. The office of the Advocate-General could be compared to that of the Special Prosecutor of the United States, which was also instituted in similar fashion in the wake of the Watergate scandal. The primary reason for the creation of the office of the Advocate-General was to maintain honest public administration and orderly government. This office was replaced by the Ombudsman in 1983 after amending the Advocate General Act by the Ombudsman Act of 1983. Then in 1994 the Constitution Act 108 of 1996 repealed the Interim Constitution Act 200 of 1993 and paved the way for the promulgation of the Public Protector Act 23 of 1994 which made provision for the establishment of the office and the governing principles of the Public Protector. In view of the above brief explanation, this article seeks to unravel evolution of the Ombudsman in South Africa, the challenges affecting the functioning of the Public Protector including the “independence” of the office as well as the duplication of functions with other agencies.

    The Dynamics of Reform and Revolt in Current South Africa F. VAN ZYL SLABBERT THE TANNER LECTURES ON HUMAN VALUES Delivered at Brasenose College, Oxford University October 27 and 29 and November 5, 1987 FREDERIK VAN ZYL SLABBERT was born in Pretoria, South Africa, and completed his undergraduate and graduate work at Stellenbosch University. He has written widely in academic journals and co-authored two books, one with Professor David Welsh, South Africa’s Option: Strategies for Sharing Power, and, with Professor J.

In addition to being a Professor and Head of the Department of Sociology at the University of the Wit- watersrand, he is co-founder and Director of the Insti- tute for a Democratic Alternative for South Africa. I. FROM APARTHEID TO REFORM: THE IDEOLOGICAL PREPARATION FOR THE TOTAL ONSLAUGHT INTRODUCTION All the ingredients for a climactic eruption in South Africa have been present for decades. Even this potential remains unful- filled. So much so that one rates doomsday scenarios not so much on predictive accuracy as on the originality and freshness of new assumptions. South Africa is waiting to become — a hovering society. Almost universal agreement on the untenability of the present is matched by equally deep differences on the pattern for the future. The conflict is also rooted in the divergence and diver- sity of hopes about what is to come. South Africa is not a hope- less society; perhaps that is why its central conflict appears to be so intractable.

There have been those who have seen the 'outward looking' policy as a new facet in South African foreign policy. It would be well thus to trace briefly some aspects of South African policy towards Africa to see how continuous the 'outward looking' policy is.
