Abstract

Because the distance in time to the Roman past is long and the ties that bound South Africa to the Netherlands have long since fallen away, the term "Roman-Dutch Law" may have an antiquarian sound. The non-initiated might therefore be ·tempted to think that South African Roman-Dutch Law - most comprehensive in important areas of private law - is a relic from the past that will have difficulty surviving in the New South Africa.
