The issues agreed upon by blacks and whites in South Africa while making new constitution were :
(a) The whites had accepted & agreed to the rule of "one person one vote".
(b) Besides, they also had agreed and accepted for some "basic rights for workers & the poor"
(c) Like wise, the blacks had agreed that the "majority rule" would not be "absolute" & the majority will not take away the whites' property
Explanation:
- South Africa 's constitution was drawn up between the White Party which ruled thru repression and the party that headed the fight for independence. The Constitution granted its people the fullest spectrum of rights of any country. All sides decided to a solution after lengthy talks.
- The white people agreed with the law of democracy & the principle of one party voting. They also agreed to recognise some human rights for the marginalized as well as the workers. The Black people accepted that the law of the majority was not absolute. They decided that the majority would not erase the white minority's property.
