Question 1
Law is regarded as sine qua non for human interaction in a society because it provides a
framework for regulating and resolving disputes between individuals and groups. Without
law, there would be chaos and anarchy, as people would be free to do whatever they want
without fear of consequences. This would make it impossible for society to function
effectively.
Examples of what the situation would be like without law include:
o People would be able to steal, rob, and kill with impunity.
o There would be no way to enforce contracts or protect property rights.
o There would be constant conflict and violence.
o Society would be in a state of perpetual chaos.
Question 2
The extract links to the metaphor of a bank in "banking education" because it emphasizes
the importance of students being active participants in their own learning. In a "banking
education," students are seen as empty vessels that need to be filled with knowledge by the
teacher. However, the extract argues that students should be seen as active learners who
are capable of constructing their own knowledge.
Praxis is the process of reflecting on and acting upon one's experiences in order to bring
about change. In the context of education, praxis refers to the process of students reflecting
on their learning and using that reflection to inform their actions. This can be done through
activities such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and community engagement.
The concept of "subjective being" is central to learning because it emphasizes the
importance of students' personal experiences and perspectives. In a traditional education
system, students are often taught to value objective knowledge that is presented to them by
the teacher. However, the concept of subjective being argues that students' own
experiences and perspectives are just as valuable as objective knowledge. This is because
students' experiences can help them to make sense of the world around them and to
develop their own understanding of knowledge.
Question 3
S v Makua 1993 (1) SACR 160 (T) is a criminal case. This is because the case involved a
prosecution for the crime of rape. The citation of the case tells us that it was decided by the
High Court of South Africa, Transvaal Division, in 1993. The case was decided by a single
judge, Justice Hartzenberg.
The case was about a man who was accused of raping a woman. The man denied the charge,
and the case went to trial. The trial court found the man guilty and sentenced him to 15
years' imprisonment. The man appealed the conviction to the High Court. The High Court
dismissed the appeal, and the man's conviction was upheld.
