While depicting the horrors of apartheid, this volume also proposes a constructive process designed to enable a free South Africa to avoid lapsing into a cycle of new oppressiveness. The authors seeks to demonstrate a challenge that they believe can and must be met by the forthcoming efforts of the Truth and Reconcilliation Commission.
