Question 1
1. Connection Between the Freedom Charter and the South African
Constitution
The Freedom Charter and the Constitution of South Africa are both pivotal
documents in the country's history, embodying core principles and aspirations
for justice, equality, and democracy.
o The Freedom Charter (1955) is a historic document that outlines
the democratic and non-racial vision for South Africa. It was a
product of collective efforts by various anti-apartheid groups,
including the African National Congress (ANC), and articulates the
demands and dreams of a broad-based movement for freedom
and equality.
o The South African Constitution (adopted in 1996) is the
supreme law of the country, reflecting the values and principles
envisioned in the Freedom Charter. It provides a detailed legal
framework for governance, rights, and justice, establishing a
democratic state based on equality and human dignity.
