Abstract	This outline is part of a collection of 54 papers from the 48th annual conference of the Education Law Association held in November 2002. It covers a presentation on changes in the law and social structure of South Africa. As an outline, it briefly touches upon a number of topics, but focuses mainly on South Africa's emerging "final" Constitution, offering background, legal explanations, and recommendations. The outline addresses the following topics: (1) constitutional and statutory provisions regarding race, age, and disability; (2) The South African Schools Act of 1996; (3) the Employment Equity Act of 1998; (4) the National Education Policy Act of 1996; (5) labor relations, including teachers' rights to strike and to seek collective bargaining; (6) freedom of expression; (7) the right to freedom of religion, belief, and opinion; and (8) education policy regarding religious observances and religious instruction in schools. (Contains 85 footnotes, some with references.) (WFA)
