What is azanian jurisprudence?
Azanian jurisprudence refers to a legal and philosophical system rooted in South Africa’s apartheid and colonial historical context. Historically, the term “Azania” was used to describe the southern part of Africa, which included what is now South Africa. Azanian jurisprudence aims to correct the historical imbalances, injustices, and inequities brought on by these historical facts.
