Description

For many observers-both inside and outside the country-South Africa''s bloodless transition from the minority white domination of the apartheid era to democracy represented a political miracle of no mean significance. An important difference between the period before 1994 and the subsequent period is that the old divisions into which society was compartmentalised-Whites, Blacks, Indians and Coloureds-have disappeared. In their place there is amore integrated society,albeit with multiple diversities. Theoretically therefore, the contours and racially-based dividing lines which were artificially created by apartheid have ceased to exist. Practically however, such divisions still persist both at societal and school levels;reason being that the deep-seated distrust of the other could not be wiped out overnight-nor could integration take place without deliberate state intervention. This monograph contributes to the contemporary debate on desegregation, racial integration and cultural diversification of the learning environment,concluding that integration and social cohesion of learners are possible if a proper enabling environment is created.
