This essay takes a historical-contextual approach as it sketches the political party scene in South Africa at the time of the last parliamentary elections in April 2009. It does so by tracing the various political strands in the anti-apartheid struggle with a view to assess their impact on the type & quality of democracy in South Africa today. The main focus falls on the interpretation of democracy by the ruling party, the African National Congress (ANC), during the period after Nelson Mandela' s presidency & in the context of the dynamics between the rule of the Demos & the guarantees of liberal constitutionalism. ANC's policy resolutions taken at the party' s 52nd conference serve as a basis for the latter part of the analysis. Adapted from the source document.
