Description
This volume continues the work of Martin Murray's book, South Africa: Time of Agony, Time of Destiny. It explores the social forces that are currently shaping the new South Africa and provides detail on the political and ideological rifts in the liberation movement, including analysis of the "homelands" parties, the trade unions and the ANC. The final chapter of this book surveys the results of the first multi-racial elections in South Africa and assesses their implications for the future of South Africa.
Reviews / Votes
"Murray's history of post-apartheid South Africa provides a strong sequel to his prior speculation on South Africa's social future, charting new paths of possibilities through subsequent changes in South African society and their political results. This analyzes the relationships between the ANC, the Communist Party and trades unions, evaluating politics, interactions, and far-reaching results.-Midwest Book ReviewMore details
