South Africa emerged from the evils of Apartheid more than a decade ago, but its problems are endemic. The gap between rich and poor has expanded, the confrontation between white and black people are on the rise, the crime rate has risen, and AIDS is decimating the mostly black population. Zimbabwe, once under British rule, still reels from the aftereffects of independence. The former colonials are blamed for failing to work out compensation and land reallocation. Violence against whites is on the increase. The international conference held in Durban in 2001 to address the issue of compensation for slavery ended without specific recommendations. Both of these countries still suffer the after effects of colonialism.
