Paperback. Condition: New. Shadow of Liberation explores the intricate twists, turns, contestations and compromises of ANC economic and social policymaking with a focus on the transition era of the 1990's and the early years of democracy With the damning revelations by the Zondo Commission of Inquiry into State Capture on the massive corruption of the South African body politic, the timing of this book could not be more relevant. South Africans need to confront the economic and social policy choices that the liberation movement made and to see how these decisions may have facilitated the conditions for corruption to emerge and flourish. Answers are needed. Padayachee and van Niekerk focus their attention on the primary question of how and why the ANC, given its historical anti-inequality, re-distributive stance, come in the 1990s, to such a dramatic turn around and move towards an essentially market-dominated approach. Were they pushed or did they go willingly? What role if any did Western governments and international financial institutions play? And what of the role of the late apartheid state and South African business? Did leaders and comrades 'sell out' the ANC's emancipatory policy vision? Shadow of Liberation tries to provide answers to these questions drawing on the best available primary archival evidence as well as extensive interviews with key protagonists across the political, non-government and business spectrum.

However its economic policy framework to realise this emancipatory mission was either non-existent or egregiously misguided.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Concentrating on the importance of universities as pivotal sites of access and the unfettered exchange of ideas, the authors explore the forms of influence and historical opposition to extreme right-wing policy on higher education.¿ Drawing on the experiences of South Africa's University of the Western Cape (UWC) during apartheid, the book documents how the institution resisted prolonged government attacks on its mission, autonomy, and administrative functioning. Examining collaboratively the impact of state control and fiscal disciplining on UWC, the book provides an immersive analysis of student mobilisation, pedagogy, and academic leadership. Universities and colleges in the US and elsewhere are currently wrestling with state mandates eroding control over admissions, teaching and research.
