Overcoming intolerance in South Africa: experiments in democratic persuasion

---

This book is about the possibility for a more tolerant South Africa. Unfortunately, the results of the writers effort to manipulate and change South African intolerance are not particularly pleasing.James L. Gibson and Amanda Gouws investigate the degree to which the political culture of South Africa and the beliefs, values, and attitudes of ordinary people affect democratic reform. One set of values is of particular concern for their research: political tolerance. Gibson and Gouws contend that political tolerance is a crucial element of democratic political cultures in general. And it is perhaps more important than any other democratic value in polyglot South Africa.
