203.00

With almost three decades of market democracy, South Africa has gone horribly wrong. This volume provides a left critique and explanation for the failed promise of national liberation of South Africa, and provides praxis-centred arguments for a new transformative politics. South Africa was the hope of the world. It had an impressive and rich tradition of left politics. At the heart of post-apartheid democracy-making was a revolutionary nationalist ANC, the oldest Communist Party in Africa, the SACP, and one of the most militant labour union federations in the world, COSATU. Yet, South Africa is at a crossroads and many are deeply concerned about its future. This book explains through a political economy/ecology analysis why and how the degeneration of national liberation politics has happened, while making praxis-centered arguments for a new transformative left politics.
