Languages users may cause violence and racism: in 1976, protests against the imposition of Afrikaans at South African schools became a massacre when the police killed 172 native protesters. But, which language to choose as language of instruction since South Africa counts eleven official languages. Therefore, this paper discusses whether English should be South Africa's sole language of instruction, to stimulate the native population's presence at universities. To support the research, governmental documents on language policy and education have been examined. Also, the linguistic diversity of South African English through language contact has been described. South Africa's language policy underlines education in vernacular languages at public schools, whereas English is used at universities. This generates a low proficiency in English; therefore, many native South Africans do not enroll at universities. The result is once again an Apartheid-like segregation, which calls for the use of English as the sole language of education.

In contemporary Western societies, policing has become associated with the state although this practice is of recent origin and by no means universal. Even within post‐industrial states, non‐state forms of policing exist and may be a rediscovered source of social control. A survey of subway riders in New York City provides information about citizen dispositions toward policing by state and non‐state sources. It was found that respondents are substantially more supportive of a self designated citizen anti‐crime organization, the Guardian Angels, than they are of the New York City Transit Police although a sizable number of respondents support both sources of policing. Differential assessment is related to perception of crime trends, the degrees to which respondents believe bystanders will intervene on their behalf in the event of a crime, fear of victimization and the reported likelihood that respondents will intervene. Such findings are useful in addressing general theoretical issues respecting the basis for support of state and non‐state policing and their relative role in social control.
