If an answer mentions only Nelson Mandela's name and not the constitution-making process, what will be missing?

Correct answer: The main analysis of constitutional design will remain incomplete

Correct answer: A. Nelson Mandela is an important symbol and leader of South Africa’s democratic transition, but constitutional design concerns the rules and institutions created for the new democracy. A complete answer should explain how the constitution responded to apartheid, established equal citizenship and rights, organised government, and helped different communities accept a common political framework. It may also mention negotiation, consensus, and reconciliation. A is correct because naming Mandela alone identifies a person but does not explain the process that produced the new constitutional order. B is wrong because a name alone does not answer a question about constitutional design. C is wrong because South Africa’s history explains why the constitution was necessary. D is wrong because apartheid is the background against which the constitutional transformation must be understood. Exam cue: write both the leader and the institution-building process.
