Why was compromise a strength and not a weakness in South Africa's constitution-making?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because conflicting groups could agree on common rules

Correct answer: B. South Africa had groups with a history of conflict, unequal power and deep mistrust. Constitution-making required them to negotiate common rules that could be accepted by both the formerly privileged and the formerly excluded communities. Such compromise was not surrender or weakness; it helped prevent renewed violence, made the democratic transition peaceful and gave the Constitution broader legitimacy. A is wrong because the purpose was to remove discrimination, not increase it. C is wrong because compromise supported a transition based on elections. D is wrong because a democratic settlement must protect the rights and participation of more than one party or group. Memory cue: democratic compromise means “different groups agree on fair common rules.”
