Call For Papers: SALGA Research Colloquium
SALGA is a calling for papers to be presented at the Colloquium.
We are gravely concerned about the state of democracy in South Africa. Our constitutional democracy, for which people like Dullah Omar fought so hard and made so many sacrifices, is under threat. At a time when South Africa needs a stable, functional and prosperous state, state institutions are being used to pursue interests that do not advance the cause of realising the rights in the Bill of Rights. We call on all sectors of society to defend our constitutional democracy.
