How does South Africa's experience show that a Constitution is also a tool of society-building?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It connected a divided society through shared values and rules

Direct answer: A is correct. A Constitution is not only a plan for forming government; it also expresses the values by which people agree to live together. South Africa had been deeply divided by apartheid, which created racial separation, unequal rights and mistrust. The new constitutional order helped replace those divisions with equality, democracy, dignity, rights and the rule of law. It provided common rules for institutions and a shared framework in which previously separated groups could regard one another as equal citizens. B is wrong because the purpose was to overcome permanent racial separation. C is wrong because the new democratic Constitution protected and expanded rights rather than removing them. D is wrong because negotiation and dialogue were important in managing the transition. Memory cue: a Constitution builds the state through institutions and builds society through shared citizenship.
