Modern South Africa: From Soweto to Democracy
PREVIEW
The Tricameral Parliament system, implemented in South Africa between 1984 and
1994, was a pivotal element of the country's political landscape during the final years
of apartheid. This system, introduced by the apartheid government under P.W. Botha,
was designed as part of the broader strategy to reform apartheid policies while
maintaining white minority rule. Its impact on South African society was profound and
complex, affecting different racial groups in varied ways.
Objectives of the Tricameral Parliament
1. To Provide Political Representation to 'Non-White' Groups
The Tricameral Parliament aimed to extend some degree of political representation to
South Africa's non-white populations—namely, Coloureds and Indians—through
separate parliamentary chambers.
