  Has South Africa dealt effectively with the past, and is the country ready to face the future? What are the challenges facing both government and civil society in the years ahead? These and other questions are explored in this collection of essays by international and local commentators on the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. A range of perspectives on whether the TRC met its objectives of truth and reconciliation is presented. The areas of particular contention-the payment of reparation, the granting of amnesty, and memorialization-are also examined. Finally, the major challenges facing South Africa are identified, and ways of meeting these challenges and developing the assets of the nation are explored. Contributors: - Haribert Adam - Kanya Adam - Alex Boraine - Colin Bundy - Mary Burton - John de Gruchy - Richard Goldstone - Willem Heath - Wilmot James - Jeffrey Lever - Mahmood Mamdani - Gary Minkley - Njabulo Ndebele - Dumisa Ntsebeza - Kaizer Nyatsumba - Grace Naledi Pandor - Mamphela Ramphele - Ciraj Rassool - Albie Sachs - Patricia Valdez - Linda van de Vijver - Jan van Eck - Frederik Van Zyl Slabbert - Charles Villa-Vicencio - Francis Wilson - Leslie Witz
