dc.description.abstractThis thesis explored issues brought to therapy by a biracial stepfamily in post-apartheid South Africa. Since this is likely to become a more common family type, the thesis examined the literature on biracial stepfamilies , so as to reflect on the therapy and determine whether race and cultural differences were the most important cause of family dysfunction. While race and culture emerged as an important stressor, pathology in the family system was found to be crucial in the therapy. Considerations for counsellors are addressed and further South African research in this area is called for.en_ZA
