dc.description.abstract | Over the past two years the contradictions
inherent in South Africa’s post-apartheid growth
and development path have become increasingly
evident. Growth has not managed to reduce very
high levels of unemployment to a significant
degree, and large numbers of people remain
trapped in structural poverty. The emergence of
a growing black middle class has helped reduce
inter-racial inequality, but this is small consolation
to those with insufficient and insecure incomes
who scrape a living in low-wage jobs (sometimes
called ‘the working poor’), engage in survivalist
micro-enterprises in informal settlements and
densely settled rural areas, or depend in large
part on social grants. A key question for South
Africa is thus: what policies can ensure more
inclusive and poverty-reducing forms of economic
development? | en_US |
