The socio‐economic restructuring of a post‐apartheid South Africa

Abstract

Points out that it would be naïve to believe that democracy in itself will solve all South Africa’s problems. Also that the legacy of apartheid lives on and will continue to do so for many generations to come. Examines the socio‐economic restructuring of South Africa, looking at whether it will be possible to make amends for past injustices while not harming future economic development. Emphasizes the role of the welfare system in improving the quality of life of black South Africans and examines whether the welfare state is a feasible option.
