ABSTRACT
This paper sketches practical and speculative parameters of reversing the usage decline of Khoisan language(s) and ways of life by means of inclusive legislative interventions, political representation, economic empowerment and the popular realms through the mainstreaming of cultural aspects of southern Africa’s autochthonous communities. Its objective is to propose avenues, through identifiable international benchmarks, for a Khoisan revival and civilisational renaissance without resorting to reverse essentialism and romanticism that negates the complexity of Khoi and San traditions and the evolving dynamism of Khoi and San peoples.

摘要
本文概述了实用性和推测性参数,通过包容性的立法干预,政治代表,经济赋权和通过将南部非洲土著社区的文化方面纳入主流,来逆转克瓦伊语和生活方式的使用下降。它的目标是通过可确定的国际基准,为科伊桑人的复兴和文明复兴提供途径,而不诉诸于逆转本质主义和浪漫主义的思想,而这种本质主义和浪漫主义否定了科伊和桑族传统的复杂性以及科伊和桑族人民不断发展的活力。
