Question 1
1. “This point therefore tells us that law is part of the political system and can never be

Guide p.7) Now look out for the document, “Freedom Charter” and go through all the clauses.
Thereafter skim through the Preamble, Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 of the Constitution of South
Africa and discuss the connection between the two documents.
To discuss the connection between the Freedom Charter and the Constitution of South Africa, I will
first provide a summary of the key clauses of the Freedom Charter and then compare these with the
Preamble, Chapter 1, and Chapter 2 of the South African Constitution.
