RESEARCH TOPIC 1:
Chastisement of children – historical approach
You are working for an organisation that promotes children’s rights. You have
recently received many queries from parents about whether or not they are still
allowed to chastise their children after the recent Constitutional Court judgment
on the matter.
You are required to conduct research on the historical development of the law
pertaining to chastisement of children by their parents. Consider relevant
constitutional rights that formed part of this debate and that was considered by
the Constitutional Court in the abovementioned judgment. Also give due
consideration to case law and legislation as you set out to establish what the
legal position was prior to the Constitutional Court judgment. Also consider the
impact of the judgment on existing legislation.
You are now in the planning phase of the research. You decide to draft a research
plan in order to organise your thinking on the topic in question. This serves as
your draft research proposal. Your draft research proposal must be fully
referenced in accordance with section C of the study guide and must include the
following:
➢ Prescribed title/cover page as per section D of the study guide (also available
under additional resources on myUnisa)
➢ Working title (on your title/cover page)
➢ Content page (table of contents)
➢ Academic honesty declaration as per section D of the study guide (also
