South Mrica has been forged in conflicts. A series of tragedies and conflicts have occurred almost for hundreds of years. The most recent and well known is apartheid itself. Through all these conflicts, there has been a gradual cultural meldown-a mutation of traditional culture and philosophy that has left a variety of cultural expresions in African. The heritage of the philosophy that comes through traditional African roots is ubuntu, which means a person is only a person because of other people. It does not exist unless there is interaction between people in community. It manifests through the actions of people, through truly good things that people do for each other and for the community. It is believed the community is as important as the individual and person's most effective behaviour is in the community. so 야en nowaday, all efforts to make a contribution toward this common good have to be encouraged, as are all acts of kindness, compassion and care, self-respeα and integrity.
