South Africa's 1994 election was widely hailed around the world as
miraculous. In this book, Anthony Butler examines South African
experiences to cast doubt on this celebratory attitude to
democracy. Contemporary political analysis highlights the benefits
that democracy can sometimes bring. Butler, by contrast, argues
that democracy can be malign. He attacks the myth that democracy
ended apartheid, and shows that democratic practices themselves
contributed to its evils. The author also explores weaknesses in
political science as a discipline. This book will be essential
reading for specialists in South Africa, and will appeal to
political theorists, students of comparative politics, and
historians.
