“…35 Lamenting the fact that recent textbooks fail to promote either a Cameroonian or African identity, the author concludes that "if texts that continue to perpetrate Eurocentrism prevail in a textbook series that stands as official curriculum, especially when written by Cameroonians, one wonders if this is the result of their Eurocentric education and/or market forces." 36 A similar theme is present in South Africa where, as J. M. Du Preez has shown, apartheid-era history textbooks presented history in a way that justified Afrikaner domination and the Afrikaner struggle for self-determination, 37 creating a racist and nationalistic history aimed at celebrating the nation state and white-supremacist identities. South Africa's transition to democracy in 1994 saw a movement away from the apartheid curriculum and towards the creation of a "new South African identity that encompasses critical consciousness, to transform South African society, and to promote democracy."…”

“…Ondanks die feit dat mediavryheid gewaarborg is onder die Suid-Afrikaanse Grondwet, word dit op verskeie vlakke geërodeer. Verskeie kommentators het die afgelope tyd gewys op die outokratiese optrede en die ondermyning van die demokrasie deur Suid-Afrika se president, Jacob Zuma (Du Preez 2015;Gouws 2015;Hoofartikel 2015a;Jeffreys 2016;Joubert 2016;Lamprecht 2015;Malala 2015). Daar word selfs verwys na 'n "Zumakrasie" en hoe dit die regstaat verswak (Hoofartikel 2015b:4).…”

“…Politieke kommentators is dit eens dat die huidige staatshoof en sy regering al hoe meer outokraties optree en die hoekstene van 'n demokrasie ondermyn, waarvan een, mediavryheid, die waarborg vir alle ander vryhede is, soos in die woorde van 'n vroeë vegter om persvryheid: Dit is so belangrik omdat dit die "bewaker en gids van alle vryhede is" (Russell in Du Plessis (1943:13); hierdie en ander aanhalings waar nodig vertaal). Benewens herhaalde stellings soos dat die ANC eerste kom, vóór Suid-Afrika, het Zuma reeds ook aan die regters van Suid-Afrika se konstitusionele hof gesê hý is deur die kiesers verkies, en hulle gevra wie hulle ingestem het "dat hulle dink hulle het seggenskap oor hom" (Du Preez 2015). Dié vraag is ook aan die media gestel.…”
