There are five phases of interaction that coincide with major South African events: the Freedom Charter, the banning of the ANC, life in exile, the negotiations table and majority party in government. The ANC’s relationship with African foreigners moves from rhetorical support, to physical reliance, to indebtedness, regional development and finally a return to the rhetorical. These interactions are then juxtaposed against legislation and offered as cause for a change in policy. This discussion is explored through a narrative structure and analysis of documents penned by the party. Included in the paper are two minor themes – an exploration of identity and what the ANC believed constitutes being South African, as well as an explanation for growing xenophobia. 2009-09-28T12:18:13Z 2009-09-28T12:18:13Z 2009-09-28T12:18:13Z Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10539/7321 en application/pdf
