Abstract

This paper examines two of the contending fictions of identity in post-election South Africa: that of the far-right and the ANC. It looks at both in terms of their difference from the logic of apartheid, and examines the relation of the fictions of a volkstaat and of non-racialism respectively to the emergence of a democratic space in a post-apartheid South Africa. These questions are developed by drawing on the theoretical discourses of Derrida, Lefort, Žižek and Laclau.
