This paper presents findings from a module in the HSRC's 2006 South
African social attitudes survey that was designed by the Centre for
the analysis of South African social policy at the University of
Oxford. Respondents were asked for their views on issues relating
to the importance of work and the relationship between social
grants and employment. The findings demonstrate a strong attachment
to the labour market among the unemployed, support for more
financial assistance for poor people including those who are unable
to find work, and no evidence that social grants in South Africa
foster a 'dependency culture'. The human sciences research
council's urban, rural and economic development research programme
(URED) uses a multi-disciplinary approach to promote integrated
urban and rural development in southern Africa and across the
continent. Poverty reduction is the unifying, overarching theme and
purpose of URED's work, and the programme's activities coalesce
around the themes of - poverty and rural development;
infrastructure and service delivery; urban change and migration;
and human development, tourism, and climate change. The analysis
presented in this monograph is part of an ongoing collaboration
between URED and the Centre for the analysis of South African
social policy at the University of Oxford in relation to poverty
and social policy in contemporary South Africa.
