4 - The Contradictory and Complementary Relationship Between Student Constructive Engagement and Protest Strategies in South African Higher Education
Revue de l’enseignement supérieur en Afrique,
Vol. 6 No 2-3 (2008): Revue de l’enseignement supérieur en Afrique
Résumé
Certains prétendent que l’Etat démocratique actuel a fait des progrès énormes dans la transformation de la société sud-africaine en général et dans l’enseignement supérieur en particulier. En fait il y a, bien au contraire, des inégalités sociales persistantes et croissantes qui se reflètent dans toutes les sphères de la vie, affectant de manière prédominante les classes pauvres, africaines et ouvrières de la société. En moyenne, près de 25 per cent des étudiants quittent chaque année les institu- tions d’enseignement supérieur en Afrique du Sud parce qu’ils sont exclus sur des bases académiques et financières. Pour réduire les abandons et les exclusions, les boycotts et les protestations de la part des étudiants se sont répandus malgré l’institutionnalisation de la participation étudiante (habituellement appelée ‘l’engagement constructif’) dans la gestion de l’enseignement supérieur en 1997. L’article explore les dimensions des diverses protestations et examine certains effets de la participation des étudiants aux structures de gestion de l’enseignement supérieur.
