The quest for Ikhaya : the use of the African concept of home in public life

This study purposes to develop an African religio-political symbol of ikhaya in the context of a newly found democracy in South Africa. Drawn from the insights of the oikos model by Everett, the study assumes that a governing symbol taken from the heritage of the African black masses in South Africa is essential for a sound public life and the emancipation of the black people.
