The population of South Africa has long been divided by racial segregation. Inspired by the new era of human rights and democracy, a movement developed that condemned apartheid at a national and at an international level. The General Assembly followed by the Security Council responded to the pressures of African and Asian states who demanded that South Africa be excluded from participating in international organizations as long as the regime remained unchanged. These demands gave rise to the complete diplomatic isolation of South Africa on November 12, 1974. The isolation lasted until 1994 and was accompanied by a critical struggle against apartheid. After twenty years of isolation, the country abolished its segregation policies and reorganized its entire regime. South Africa was reintegrated into the international legal System and admitted to intergovernmental organizations as an effective participant. This historical and political evolution consecrated fundamental human rights in the internal legal structure of South Africa. Ethnocentrism was rejected as well as racism in all of its expressions and the new regime chose to adhere to a model of unity "in the context of diversity".

Although the collection of short stories Les Soirées de Médan (1880) presents itself as a naturalist manifesto, it is hard to see, at first glance, how the war context determines the characters’ actions. It is more common to consider these actions as transgressive because of their rejection of social norms at the time of their publication. If characters first seem to seek refuge in spaces where they can escape war, the conflict still intrudes. Their actions can therefore be interpreted as logical consequences of the context in which they evolve rather than as transgressive acts. In this regard, the short stories respect the deterministic principle of naturalism and presents characters directly influenced by their milieu and the circumstances in which they evolve, according to the natural laws set out in Zola’s theory.
