This examination is undertaken to investigate whether the self-description provided by the University of Cape Town (UCT) regarding its race-based affirmative action in admissions is responsible for the heated debate that it continues to elicit. It begins with a close examination of Luhmann's "Social Systems" which is used to conceptualize the university itself as a social system.
