Intergroup Contact and the Construction of Racial Inequality and Injustice in Post-Apartheid South Africa, 2006-2007

Two surveys were conducted in post-apartheid South Africa to explore, among other factors, attitudes towards race-targeted policies, perceptions of racial justice and discrimination, and racial prejudice.
