- Description
- South Africa does not have a particularly proud history. Marred by the politics of separate but (un)equal treatment of its people, the country's past political system has had a damaging effect in all spheres, but specifically on that of the family. In the context of relationships, it is fair to say that the apartheid system was replicated in family law, with the Western 'white' monogamous marriage receiving the state's stamp of approval - leaving other relationships (customary, Muslim, homosexual, cohabiting etc) largely out in the cold.
