Abstract

The third issue of 2013 contains 12 contributions ranging from two orationes, nine articles and one note. The first oratio is an address delivered by Karthy Govender at the Law Faculty, University of Michigan, to commemorate the 2013 Martin Luther King Day at the Law Faculty, University of Michigan. He draws parallels between King, Ghandhi and Mandela and discusses the influence they all had in the development of South Africa into a democratic state. In the second oratio Mike van Graan airs his views on the Revised White Paper on Arts, Culture and Heritage of 2013, published by the Department of Arts and Culture. His main concern is the haste in which the white paper is being taken through the process, and he cautions against the adoption of a far-reaching policy which has not been thoroughly considered
