Why was constitution-making in South Africa called a historic achievement?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because democratic consensus emerged after a long racial conflict

The correct answer is A. Constitution-making becomes especially important when a society has experienced long conflict and discrimination. South Africa had been divided by apartheid, which denied equal rights according to race. After the struggle, representatives had to negotiate common rules for a democratic country in which all citizens could participate. Reaching agreement in such circumstances was difficult, so the creation of a shared democratic constitution was a historic achievement. Option A is correct because it includes both essential ideas: the long racial conflict and the democratic consensus that followed it. Option B is wrong because the new constitutional order rejected apartheid rather than imposing it again. Option C is wrong because participation and negotiation by different groups were necessary. Option D is wrong because democratic change expanded political participation and voting rights. Memory cue: historic constitution-making means divided groups agree on common democratic rules.
