Injustice, Violence, and Peace The Case of South Africa
Amsterdam/Atlanta, GA 1997. XV,223 pp. (Value Inquiry Book Series 56) ISBN: 90-420-0274-3 Bound Hfl. 120,-/US-$ 63.- ISBN: 90-420-0264-6 Paper Hfl. 35,-/US-$ 18.-
South Africa's miraculous political transformation astounded the world. Few people thought peaceful elections for a modem democracy possible, given the violence, hatred, and racism generated by apartheid. Still fewer people thought the new democratic government would be established peacefully and effectively. What is the secret of the political miracle achieved in South Africa? In my book I argue that the secret is a comprehensive change in the conception of justice guiding the political institutions of South Africa. Injustice in apartheid South Africa led to conflict and dehumanization, whereas the justice of the new South Africa restored humanity and established lasting peace. Pursuing justice is a moral imperative and has practical value as a cost-efficient way of dealing with conflict. I present my ideas on peace to people everywhere who are interested in how South Africa has changed. The wide-ranging, lasting effects of this moral transformation might be instructive to people everywhere. Lessons from South Africa's recent past may motivate people striving for transition to democracy in their own countries. Even people in established democracies may learn from the solutions the new South African democrats are devising from problems all democracies share.
