EXPROPRIATION WITHOUT COMPENSATION IN SOUTH AFRICA

   The South African Parliament passed a measure in a landslide vote to confiscate farmland owned by whites without compensation.
   A similar program instituted in neighboring Zimbabwe—once known as Rhodesia—resulted in hundreds of white farmers being slaughtered and the agricultural sector of the economy collapsing.
   The fate of white farmers will be dependent on the actions of South Africa's new president, Cyril Ramaphosa, a big supporter of expropriation without compensation, who said in 2016 that he was "not calling for the slaughter of white people—at least for now."
