Abstract

Pan-Africanism is a significant concept in African Studies, with South Africa playing a pivotal role as a post-apartheid nation. A mixed-methods approach combining ethnographic interviews, surveys, and document analysis is employed. Data collection spans across various regions of South Africa and includes a diverse sample group. Survey responses indicate that over 60% of participants perceive Pan-Africanism as essential for national unity but also face significant challenges related to economic disparities and cultural homogenization. The study underscores the multifaceted nature of Pan-Africanism in South Africa, highlighting both its potential for unity and its obstacles. Policy recommendations include fostering inclusive economic growth strategies and promoting intercultural dialogue to mitigate perceived threats to national identity.
