1 It is not possible in this short compass to give a complete account of legal education in South Africa. Law is taught at the following universities: Cape Town; Natal; Orange Free State; Potchefstroom; Pretoria; Rhodes; University of South Africa; Stellenbosch; Witswatersrand; Fort Hare; University College of the North; University College of the Western Cape. Legal education broadly follows similar lines to those adopted in American or British universities. In the context of the problems being faced by legal education in other parts of the African continent, the most interesting questions for further study in connexion with the Republic of South Africa are: (i) the availability of facilities for legal education for persons of African origin; (ii) the extent to which African and other non-western laws form part of the curriculum, and the reports which follow are made with special reference to these questions.—Editor.
