A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Law University of Pretoria, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Masters of Law (LLM in Human Rights and Democratisation in Africa). Prepared under the supervision of Dr. Henry Onoria of the Faculty of Law, University of Makerere. 2010. Xenophobia is a fear or contempt of that which is foreign or unknown, especially of strangers or foreign people. It comes from the Greek words ξένος (xenos), meaning "foreigner," "stranger," and φόβος (phobos), meaning "fear." The term is typically used to describe a fear or dislike of foreigners or of people significantly different from oneself.1 On 11 May 2008 foreigners, mainly black people who lived in poor areas were attacked by South African citizens in South Africa; the attacks started in Alexandra, Johannesburg and spread to other areas in the country.2 Due to the occurrence 62 people were officially confirmed dead; 342 foreigners‟ shops were looted and 213 burnt down.3 Forty one foreigners were killed during the incident; such kinds of xenophobic attacks against foreigners had taken place in the country before, having reached their peak in May 2008.4 Further, „at least 670 people were wounded, and over 100 000 displaced.‟ http://www.chr.up.ac.za/ Centre for Human Rights LLM 2011-06-09T12:43:07Z 2011-06-09T12:43:07Z 11-Oct Mini Dissertation * Marindze, AC 2010, 'Diplomatic protection and xenophobic violence in South Africa : the case for reparation to Mozambican victims', University of Pretoria, Faculty of Law, Centre of Human Rights. http://hdl.handle.net/2263/16757 en LLM Dissertations Centre for Human Rights University of Pretoria application/pdf University of Pretoria |
