남아공의 진실과 화해위원회는 1995년에 설립되어 3년 동안 인종차별주의 체제의 과거사를 정리하였다. 진실과화해위원회의 설립 목적은 기본적으로 진실과 화해를 통한 민주주의 체제로의 이행이었다. 진실과화해위원회의 활동에 대한 평가는 다양하다. 조사에 집중한 법률적 보복으로 평가하는 클러크, 민주주의를 과도기적으로 이행시킨 활동이었다고 평가하는 크로닌, 그리고 단기적인 활동에 머물러 과거사를 제대로 정리하지 못하였다고 평가하는 시민운동단체들도 있다. 그렇지만 진실과화해위원회는 남아공의 민주주의를 이행시키는 과정에서 주요한 역할과 기능을 담당하였다. 첫째, 사회통합의 정체성을 강화시키려 하였다. 둘째, 사회적 하부구조를 개혁시키려 하였다. 셋째, 사회경제적 모순을 약화시키려 하였다. 진실과화해위원회의 역할과 기능이 법무부의 진실과화해국으로 이관된 상태이지만, 남아공의 과거사 정리정책은 몇 가지의 과제를 안고 있다. 첫째, 역사의 복원이라는 차원에서 진실을 지속적으로 규명할 수 있는 국가적·사회적 시스템을 구축할 필요가 있다. 둘째, 사회적 하부구조의 개혁이 위원회의 권고안에 머물거나 부분적이고 일면적인 수준에 머무는 것이 아니라 총체적인 차원의 정부정책으로 수립·집행되어야 한다. 셋째, 남아공의 과거사가 곧 흑인들에 대한 백인들의 노동착취와 긴밀하게 연계되어 있다는 점을 고려하면, 남아공 정부는 흑인들의 노동권리 및 생활권리를 보장할 수 있는 정책을 적극적으로 추진할 필요가 있다. 마지막으로, 국가폭력 및 인권유린의 전체 사건 중에서 약 42%만을 위원회가 조사하였다는 사실에 비추어 보면, 나머지 58%의 사건에 대한 진실규명과 화해조치가 이루어져야 한다.

In Korea, nation and nationalism are undeniable justice, absolute virtue and moreover system of desire. From the late Chosun Dynasty when the Korean Peninsula had to survive from the critical situation of being the arena of competition, and through the colonial period under Japanese imperialism, nationalism became stronger as a logic of survival. The policy of seclusion under closed and exclusive nationalism that didn't recognize the world situation well enough, eventually gave more pain to the nation. Nationalism in colonial Korea which was as reformed nationalism and on the other hand, as intransigent, resisting nationalism. Since the purpose of this writing is not for clarifying the argument raised on Korean nationalism, there is no use mentioning how it went with the change of time. But we have to focus on the fact that the word 'nation' which appeared under the influence of popular revolution and capitalism meaning 'a group of people', was translated and understood as a racial concept for strengthening the unity of 'single-race nation with five thousand years' history. First of all, there is nationalism used to fortify the system. 'The Charter of National Education' and 'The Pledge of Allegiance' were ornaments to intensify the ruling ideology and dictatorship to militarize entire South Korea for 'settling Korean democracy' professed nationalism. Also, another ruling ideology armed with 'self-reliance' put North Korea into the state of hypnosis called nationalism. Nationalism, claiming 'nation' outwardly, but in reality, being an illuminating, instructing ideology isolating each other was indeed a body with two faces. This made 'nation' in Korea mysterious and objective through work such as. The statue commemorating patriotic forefathers' and picture of national records' in South Korea art. Nationalism used to strengthening the system encountered the magical 'single-race' and made 'ghost' being an extreme exclusion to other nations. We can find pedigreed pureness not allowing any mixed breeds from the attitude accepting western art -via Japan or directly- and making it vague by using the word Korean and Asia. There's nationalism as a resistant ideology to solidify the system on the other side. It came out as a way of survival among the Great Power and grew with the task of national liberation to became as a powerful force facing against the dictatorship dominating South Korea after the liberation. This discussion of nationalism as a resistance ideology was active in 1980s. In 1980, democracy movement against the dictatorship of 5th Republic originated from military power which came out suppressing the democratic movement in Gwangju, spread out from the intellects and the students to the labors, farmers and the civilians. It is well known that the 'Nation-People(Minjoong)'s Art Movement could come out under this social condition. Our attitude toward nationalism is still dual in this opening part of 21st century. On one hand, they are opposing to the ultra-nationalism but are not able to separate it from nationalism, and on the other, they have much confusion using it. In fact, in a single-race nation like Korea, the situation of being nationalism and jus sanguinis together can cause dual nationalism. Though nationalism is included in the globalization order, it is evidence that it's effective in Korea where there are still modern fetters like division and separation. In particular, in the world where Japan makes East Asia Coalition but exposed in front of nationalism, and China not being free from Sinocentrism, and American nationalism taking the world order, and Russia fortifying nationalism suppressing the minority race after the dissolution of socialism, Korean nationalism is at the point to find an alternative plan superior to the ruling and resisting ideology.
