💨 Abstract

In post-apartheid South Africa, the privately-owned, Afrikaner settlement of Kleinfontein, often referred to as "Orania lite," has faced legal challenges for violating planning laws, environmental regulations, and municipal by-laws. The High Court ruled that self-determination does not permit the creation of parallel legal orders, and Kleinfontein's existence as an unregistered, unapproved settlement is illegal.
