This unit begins with an examination of the historical factors that made South Africa a deeply divided society, culminating in the government’s imposition of the apartheid system, which lasted from 1948 until the early 1990s. Students will then consider how and why the country made the transition from apartheid to multiracial democracy, asking the fundamental question: Has the abolition of apartheid brought a better life to all South Africans?
