(1935-) Primarily known as African National Congress constitutional expert, who was maimed and nearly killed by a car bomb in Maputo. On his return to South Africa in 1990 he was a leading figure in the development of the new constitution, but also became an influential and sometimes controversial spokesman on arts and cultural matters, including the newly formed [[National Arts Council]] (*?). Most notable was his call for a moratorium on the use of the idea of "art as a weapon", and a shift to a more positive, rebuilding approach to the arts. The debate this engendered was brought together by I. de Kok and K. Press in the book ''Spring is Rebellious: Arguments about Cultural Freedom by Albie Sachs and Respondents''. (Cape Town: Buchu Books, 1990).
