27. april 1994

Første frie valg til Sydafrikas parlament, vindes af ANC (62% af stemmerne) og 27.4. bliver Sydafrikas frihedsdag.
10. maj 1994 bliver ANC-lederen Nelson Mandela Sydafrikas første ikke-hvide præsident (til 1999). Apartheid-perioden (siden 1948) regnes for afsluttet i Sydafrika.

Se:

Sydafrika – 30 år efter Mandelas løsladelse. Af Ann Langwadt og Morten Nielsen (Arbejderen.dk, 22. marts 2020). “Vejen til frihed for Sydafrikas sorte og fattige befolkning er stadig lang og stejl, og resultatet 30 år efter Mandelas løsladelse den 11. februar 1990 er ikke det smukkeste.”

Dengang de borgerlige gav Mandela den kolde skulder og holdt hånden under apartheid (Arbejderen.dk, 12. februar 2020). “På 30-årsdagen for befrielsen af Nelson Mandela tager Arbejderen et kig tilbage til tiden, hvor det sydafrikanske apartheidregime havde flere danske venner blandt borgerlige politikere i Danmark. Pia Kjærsgaard kaldte Mandela for en “terroristleder”, og de borgerlige partier afviste at boykotte apartheidregimet.”

Sydafrika: 20 år efter apartheid. Af Jørn Andersen (Socialistisk Arbejderavis, nr. 338, 1. maj 2014; online på Internet Archive). “Den 27. april var det 20 år siden det første demokratiske valg i Sydafrika … Apartheid og kapitalisme var tæt sammenvævet. Det var modstanden desværre kun delvist.”

Did boycotts, divestment and sanctions overthrow the Apartheid regime in South Africa? By Ben Morken (In Defence of Marxism, 6 December 2023). “The truth is that the hated regime was not overthrown by international sanctions and disinvestments. As we have seen, these had a minimal impact on the regime … The key lesson is that the decisive blow against the Apartheid regime was dealt by a revolutionary mass movement, led by the South African working class.”

Enhedslisten kommer i Folketinget 21. september 1994.

Se:

Vores historie (1989-2019): Fra splittelse til samling på venstrefløjen (Enhedslisten)
“Fra splittelse til samling på venstrefløjen. Inden dannelsen af Enhedslisten var afmatningen på venstrefløjen markant. Berlinmurens og Sovjetunionens fald forstærkede en eksistentiel krise, og medlemmerne strømmede ud af partierne. Der skulle tænkes i nye baner for at indgyde et nyt håb.”
“1994 blev året, hvor Enhedslisten opnåede sit parlamentariske gennembrud, (mandag den 21. september 1994). Godt hjulpet på vej af Enhedslistens utrættelige kamp mod EU, som stod i skarp kontrast til SF’s ja ved folkeafstemningen i 1993, lykkedes det at få overbevist hele 104.578 (3,1 procent) af vælgerne om, at krydset skulle sættes ved Ø. Resultatet mundede ud i seks mandater, og det politiske landskab i Danmark stod for første gang i lang tid med en stærk og fortrøstningsfuld venstrefløj, der nu også var repræsenteret i Folketinget.”
Medlemmerne i den første folketingsgruppe var: Keld Albrechtsen, Bent Hindrup Andersen, Jette Gottlieb, Bruno Jerup, Søren Søndergaard og Frank Aaen.
