Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An unequivocally excellent work of scholarship that makes significant theoretical and empirical contributions to the understanding of 'globalization' and the working of contemporary neo-liberal capitalism. Hart is especially innovative in placing the study of Taiwanese industrialists in South Africa in relation to both the agrarian history of Taiwan and China, and the way that Taiwanese overseas firms have operated in places other than South Africa. It is a very rare combination of talents and knowledge that makes such a study possible."--James Ferguson, author of Expectations of Modernity

Download or read book Regionalism written by Bertus De Villiers and published by HSRC Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1992 the South African debate on regional government has shifted its focus to the content of regional government and the way that it could contribute to democratisation, improved government, the prevention of conflict and the accommodation of ethnic and other diversities. The Centre for Constitutional Analysis at the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC) has been actively involved in the stimulation and development of the debate on regional government in South Africa. Some of the initiatives taken by the Centre have included comparative research, the running of workshops, the involvement of international scholars and various publications. This latest book attempts to make a practical contribution to the debate and is therefore intended to provide practitioners with a framework that could be used for the solving of problems that are faced in and outside of the negotiation process.

Book excerpt: First published in 1999, the essays collected in the present volume derive from an interest in South Africa and its economy which goes back to the early 1970s and were written between 1994 and 1999.

Issues discussed include the South African economy after apartheid and whether the new South African economy is ultimately experienced growth or stagnation.

Download or read book The Decline of the South African Economy written by Stuart Jones and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: South Africa's leading economists adopt within this volume a sectoral approach in their analysis of the drastic changes that have occurred within the South African economy since 1970. The book illustrates how, despite its sophisticated infrastructure, the South African economy has shared in the economic decline - resulting from misguided economic policies - that has been the experience of Sub-Saharan Africa. The contributors argue that the failure of manufacturing to maintain the country's economic growth, once the output of the gold mines began to decline, is central to an understanding of events and outcomes in the economy. Government policy towards manufacturing has played a major part in the decline of the South African economy, but this has, however, tended to be overlooked as a result of the turbulence generated by the political events unfolding in South Africa.
