Abstract
• The rise of traditional leaders – in political, economic, governmental, judicial & legislative terms – amounts to a modern, post-apartheid retribalisation of the countryside
• Deleterious effect on rights
• Roots of “traditional” power not deleted by Constitution
– Arguably, Constitution opened door to ongoing contestation that has been used to claw back on rights
