Abstract

Clark offers a comprehensive overview of the development of apartheid in South Africa and its consequences to the present. Focusing on the incremental elaboration of racial segregation in South Africa, she demonstrates the continuing impact of the past on post-apartheid South Africa. The chapter draws attention to the crucial role played by Africans outside of the political process in bringing about the end of apartheid through protests, boycotts, and strikes. Clark also discusses continuing problems in the post-apartheid period leading to the growing disenchantment with the ANC Government under Jacob Zuma. The chapter brings to light the research of authors working in the post-apartheid period with information that was previously suppressed. Using these sources, Clark provides a broad picture of how apartheid worked, how it was defeated, and the current problems facing South Africa.
