My
question is this: can the South African state, understood as a liberal democratic
constitutional state, recognise the political significance of the collective colonial
unconscious?
What is
the difference in the ways a liberal democratic state and a national
democratic
state are related to this ‘white unconscious’. What should the South
African
state qua National Democratic state ‘do’ about this ‘white unconscious’? What is
the appropriate political way of dealing with this mode of existence of
colonialism?
