About this publication:
“Family Law in South Africa, second edition, offers a clear and accessible introduction to the principles of family law in South Africa. The second edition is thoroughly updated and revised to reflect developments within the recent period, and includes a new chapter relating to surrogacy, IVF, and other forms of non-natural reproduction. This revised edition introduces a more integral and expanded synthesis of common law and African customary law, throughout, and includes a new chapter that discusses customary law rights, responsibilities and ritual pertaining to children. Where relevant, aspects of legal ethics, social justice, problem solving, and comparative law are foregrounded, at the appropriate level, and critical, reflective and skills-based development is supported by the text’s unique pedagogical design.”
