Magister Educationis - MEd / This dissertation will attempt to explain the changes that
have and are taking place within south African sport and
especially school sport. This will be viewed in the context
of changing political developments. The central question that
will be addressed is whether progressive school sports bodies
can effect meaningful political change.
Kuhn's theory of scientific revolutions will be used as the
theoretical framework for understanding social and
political change. He developed the concept of paradigms
(frame of .reference) in which an established paradigm
prevails, challenged by an emerging rival paradigm. This
theory has been applied to the present day south African
political context in which the apartheid structure is the
prevailing paradigm and the democratic movement, the emerging
rival paradigm.
