FROM MULTICULTURALITY TO INTERCULTURALITY? LOCATING THE ONGOING AFRICAN AGENCY DISCOURSE IN THE DEBATE

  • Godwin I. Akper Stellenbosch University

Abstract

This essay argues and concludes that an interdependence of people and their cultures will better facilitate a move from multiculturality to interculturality in (South) Africa. The first part of the essay attempts a theological description of the concepts of multiculturality and interculturality. The second part discusses how interculturality can be distinguished from multiculturality. The last part proposes how the move from multiculturality to interculturality could be facilitated.
