The serial property represents the legacy of the South African struggle for human rights, liberation and reconciliation. It consists of fourteen component parts located around the country, all related to South Africa’s political history in the 20th century. The parts include the Union Buildings (Pretoria), now the official seat of government; the Sharpeville Sites, commemorating the massacre of 69 people protesting the unjust Pass Laws; and The Great Place at Mqhekezweni, a site symbolic of traditional leadership where Nelson Mandela lived as a young man. These places reflect key events linked to the long struggle against the apartheid state; Mandela’s influence in promoting understanding and forgiveness; and belief systems based on philosophies of non-racialism, Pan-Africanism and ubuntu, a concept that implies humanity is not solely embedded in an individual.
人权、解放与和解：纳尔逊·曼德拉纪念地
纳尔逊·曼德拉纪念地代表着南非为争取人权、解放与和解而斗争的宝贵财富。该系列遗产由分布在全国各地的14处纪念地组成，皆诉说着南非20世纪的政治史。其中包括：联合大厦（比勒陀利亚），也是现政府所在地；沙佩维尔（Sharpeville）纪念地，纪念69名因抗议不公正的《通行证法》而惨遭屠杀的公民；位于姆凯凯兹韦尼（Mqhekezweni）的胜地（Great Place）是曼德拉年轻时居住过的地方，象征着传统领袖精神。这些地点反映了漫长的种族隔离抗争史中的重要事件，曼德拉在促进理解和宽恕方面的影响，以及基于非种族主义、泛非主义、乌班图等哲学思想的信仰体系。乌班图理念认为，人性并非仅存于个体。
