内容説明
Admired by many nations, the South African constitution and bill of rights are widely acknowledged as among the most progressive and inclusive in the world today. How did South Africa evolve from a country notorious for its human rights abuses to one that is today a leading light for other countries grappling with issues of oppression? With rare insight and intelligence, the editors of Legacy of freedom answer this question by selecting and presenting the most significant landmarks in the history of the African National Congress that contributed to shaping South Africa's future on the path to human dignity, equality and opportunity for all the people for South Africa. Central to the lasting legacy of the ANC, these seminal documents show how its long-established tradition of freedom has been grounded in human rights from the beginning. From the inspiration of the early leaders, such as Pixely Seme and Charlotte Maxeke, through the mass participation in the drafting of the Freedom Charter, to the negotiations over a new Constitution, this title records the ANC's unswerving commitment to the principles of human rights as the cornerstone of exemplary democratic government.
