Abstract
The National Action Plan to Combat Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia and Related Intolerance (hereafter the NAP) outlines a broad based strategy to combat anti-immigrant hate crime1 in South Africa. However, the NAP is on the whole only a technical framework and the development of more detailed anti-xenophobia programmes is needed. To assist with the creation of such programmes, this policy brief examines anti-immigrant attitudes and behaviours in South Africa. Contemporary data from the South African Social Attitudes Survey (SASAS) series (2015 to 2018) is used for this analysis.-
