The Oliver and Adelaide Tambo Foundation have invited intellectual giant professor Mahmood Mamdani to deliver the first virtual lecture in the Tambo Foundation’s 10-year anniversary lecture series on “Lessons of the South African Transition of 1994”.

After 400 years of colonialism, apartheid and a brutal struggle for liberation, South Africa was lauded internationally for averting civil war and developing one of the world’s most progressive Constitutions.

Twenty-six years since the onset of our transition, it is time to reflect on some of the lessons that we have learned from our transition to a democratic dispensation. Given the current state of our nation, it is essential that we take a deeper look at what gains have been made just as we need explore failures.

A specialist on African and international politics, professor Mamdani has authored several critically acclaimed books including Citizen and Subject, When Victims Become Killers, and Good Muslim, Bad Muslim.
