Why was participation of different groups necessary in South Africa's Constituent Assembly?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: So that the Constitution became acceptable to all communities

Correct answer: C. A Constituent Assembly makes the basic rules of a country, so its composition matters greatly. South Africa included communities that had lived under unequal treatment and had different experiences of apartheid. If only one group participated, the Constitution might protect that group's interests and fail to gain public trust. Broad participation allowed different communities to express their concerns, discuss rights and help design institutions that could serve the whole country. C is correct because representation increased acceptance, legitimacy and confidence in the Constitution. A is wrong because a democratic Constitution should not be limited to the rich. B is wrong because the new constitutional process aimed to end apartheid laws, not preserve them. D is wrong because democratic representation seeks to include the majority as well as minorities. Memory cue: representation makes a Constitution belong to the people, not to one group.
