With the fall of apartheid in South Africa, expectations were
high for the enfranchisement of the acutely underdeveloped majority
in South Africa. But problems abound, and this educational study
looks critically at the educational situation and puts forth a
number of proposals that could produce better results in
contemporary South Africa.
Abdi urges that beyond the celebratory platforms of the
political triumph over apartheid, there must be effective and
culturally inclusive programs of education for the development of
the highly disenfranchsed majority in South Africa.
Deliberate programs of colonialism and apartheid in South Africa
resulted in inferior education, cultural marginalization, political
oppression, economic exploitation and resulting underdevelopment in
the lives of the disenfranchised majority. In addition to
historical and contemporary analysis, this study looks at the
possibilities of formulating and implementing new programs of
education and development that could effectively deal with such
current problems as chronic unemployment, skyrocketing crime rates,
stagnating learning systems, and the continuing formations of a
huge underclass that may be losing its stake in the promised
post-apartheid project.
