Abstract:
Traditional leadership is often judged as an anomaly within a democratic system of governance. It lives in tension with the land-reform programme, and the hereditary nature of its top position (ubukhosi) seems to discriminate against women. Yet, people who live under this system do not seem to protest forcefully against it. Pearl Sithole explains the resilience of traditional leadership in South Africa.
