Abstract
South Africa's new Constitution has been hailed as one of the most democratic
and sophisticated in history, surpassing even the Constitutions of many first
world countries. Of paramount importance in the Constitution is the limitation
clause. In this dissertation, an endeavour shall be made to shed light on the
provision for the limitation of rights in section 36( 1) of the 1996 Constitution. 1
Allusion will be made to section 33 of the 1993 Constitution2 so that the
rationale, relevance, content and context of section 3 6(1) can be more
meaningfully appreciated.
