Controversially, arguments are often made that the actions of other nations are analogous to ], or constitute apartheid under the definition adopted in ]. In particular, ] was the law in the American South until the mid-1960s. Some similarities between the situation in the U.S. and South Africa are:
* The races were kept separate.
* Blacks were systematically denied voting rights.
* ] was similar to apartheid etiquette.
Some differences were:
* In the U.S. after the civil war, there was never a class of blacks who were not citizens.
* Unlike the apartheid system, the Jim Crow system was not maintained by a very small white minority.
* There were no "homelands" in the U.S.
* Denial of voting rights in the U.S. was enforced by local custom, not by law.

]'s discriminatory practices against women and non-Muslim minorities can also be described as forms of apartheid (see also for Human Rights Watch report).

Global apartheid is the view that rich democratic Western nations are acting in much the same way as white South Africa, by exploiting or ignoring the plight of people in developing countries. White South Africans justified their actions by citing black South Africans as nominally removed from them in terms of geography and therefore citizens of another territory.

Redirect to:

This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:
  • From a less specific name: This is a redirect from a title that is a less specific name to a more specific, less general one.
    • It may be a less specialized term, a broader usage, a generic term or simply be worded less narrowly. It leads to the title in accordance with the naming conventions for common names and can help writing and searches. It is not necessary to replace these redirected links with a piped link.
    • Such names often indicate that a broader, overview article needs to be written. For such redirects {{R with possibilities}} should also be added.
  • From a page move: This is a redirect from a page that has been moved (renamed). This page was kept as a redirect to avoid breaking links, both internal and external, that may have been made to the old page name.
  • From a short name: This is a redirect from a title that is a shortened form of a more complete page title, such as a person's full name or the unbroken title of a written work.
  • With history: This is a redirect from a page containing substantive page history. This page is kept as a redirect to preserve its former content and attributions. Please do not remove the tag that generates this text (unless the need to recreate content on this page has been demonstrated), nor delete this page.
    • This template should not be used for redirects having some edit history but no meaningful content in their previous versions, nor for redirects created as a result of a page merge (use {{R from merge}} instead), nor for redirects from a title that forms a historic part of Misplaced Pages (use {{R with old history}} instead).
When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.
