Migration after apartheid: deracialising South African foreign policy

By: Klotz, Audie.
Material type: materialTypeLabelArticlePublisher: 2000Description: p.831-47.Subject(s): International relations | South Africa - Foreign relations | Migration - South Africa | Migration In: Third World QuarterlySummary: Some critics have pointed to South Africa's restrictive migration policy as one of the areas most deficient in overturning apartheid legacies. Yet it is not a lack of democratic process that forestalls change - witness open parliamentary debate, an array of think-tanks and researchers providing input into the policy-making process, and the mobilisation of diverse grassroots voices. Rather, a new non-racial xenophobia creates a potent barrier to reform. Therefore, advocates of migrants' rights and opponents of violence should utilise regional and international points of leverage to their fullest potential if post-apartheid South Africa is to fulfill its democrratic promise. - Reproduced
