dc.description.abstract |
Taking his cue from the two Zulu words Ukubuyisa (to reconcile with the dead) and Ukuhlanza
(the washing of the spears), the author discusses the role that the South African faith
communities may play in the quest for healing and reconciliation. A number of prerequisites
for reconciliation and peace-building exist, and must be addressed by the Christian
churches as well as by the other faith communities in the country. Inviting the reader to
page with him through the picture book of reconciliation, the author discusses some of
these prerequisites, as well as the way in which different role players within the Christian,
African Traditional, Hindu and Muslim communities, have attempted to deal with them in
the recent past in South Africa. |
