Gus > You should be aware that law itself, that is, the whole corpus of rules and legislative writings that legitimized --indeed, legalized-- South Africa's white private property, was not abolished altogether by the new ANC regime.

You should be aware that the apartheid regime was not defeated in battle or overthrown by way of revolution. For what it's worth, they made a deal with the ANC that they would hand over power to them under the condition (amongst other things) that the ANC would abide by strict non-racial, democratic rules (call them what you will). The ANC was not given carte blanche (pun intended) just to take what they want from the whites.
