Assignment Task

Question 1 In the past year, the Covid-19 pandemic has had a devastating impact across the world affecting the quality of life and the economy. But that impact has been uneven and unequal, as the virus ravaged some communities more than others, whilst sparing or even boosting the fortunes of some demographic groups as others were weakened. Women, migrants, and impoverished persons have suffered disproportionately, as the pandemic exposed and exacerbated pre-existing gaps in health, economic security, and well-being, bringing South Africa’s structurally embedded inequality into sharp relief. One thing that is clear about the Covid-19 pandemic is that it is no longer business as usual as the South African government wrestles with the devastating effects of this pandemic has on vulnerable groups such as the poor and immigrants. Write a 5000-word essay in which you address the impact of the covid-19 pandemic on migrants. The essay must specifically address the following:

The impact of colonialism and apartheid on migrants from other African states searching for a better life in South Africa;

Does the ‘post-apartheid’ South Africa deal better with African migrants compared to the past?;

The migration of the different South African groups (Blacks and Whites) (1500 words); and

The role of transformative constitutionalism.
