The term has entered international concsiousness to such a degree that it has been used to describe, by analogy, various situations of alleged institutional racism beyond South Africa's borders.

  • Supporters of Batasuna also call its illegalisation "apartheid".
  • 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. It is defined as "an international system of minority rule whose attributes include: differential access to basic human rights; wealth and power structured by race and place; structural racism, embedded in global economic processes, political institutions and cultural assumptions; and the international practice of double standards that assume inferior rights to be appropriate for certain "others," defined by location, origin, race or gender."
