Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper, submitted to the Scott Holland Symposium on Anglicanism and nation-building in September 2020, explores the concept of restitution through the questions: ‘How adequate are the current understandings of restitution in relation to the reconciliation journey?’, and ‘What would a theology of restitution based on a broader understanding look like?’. In so doing, it explores a theology of restitution within the reconciliation paradigm, focussing on the South African context. The argument that reconciliation without restitution is, at best, only partial and needs to be based in praxis, led to engaging with a community reconciliation process in Worcester, Western Cape, in order to understand with them what reconciliation and restitution meant, and how it might be enacted.
