Apartheid was not a success either though.
And sure post-apartheid isn't pretty yet, but we don't/can't know what SA would look like today if there had never been apartheid.
I don't think anything in South African history would point to segregation being a solution to any social, economic, or political problems.
- shard972 9y agoOn the other side of the coin I don't see complete integration as the solution either, unless you race mix the entire country for centuries there is going to be racial conflict it seems in SA. When it comes to segregation, I don't see why it in itself is bad. Apartheid was a problem because you had a white ruling class oppressing blacks and the problem we are now seeing is the opposite, a black ruling class oppressing whites. If we were able to split the state in two, couldn't we at least stem some of the racial conflicts? Much harder to opress groups that don't exist within the country.
