Conflict of Interest in South Africa (Paperback)

In this book, a compressed account about why government officials are stuck between a rock and a hard place is provided. The answer to the question: To what extent has conflict of interest become a problem in South Africa, was widely attempted from the beginning of the book cutting through the bones to the marrow. The book took both a radical and a softer approach to the theoretical understanding of conflict of interest. Among other observations, it must be pointed out that conflict of interest occurs at the fluid interface between personal interests and public duty. A barometer check at both the developed or underdeveloped worlds suggests that this phenomenon occurs in both worlds. Among other recommendations, with the history unfolding, it becomes crystal clear that a legal solution is not a panacea to eliminate conflict of interest practices hence a need to integrate the legal imperative with good governance and ethical conduct. This book is therefore a must to read by practitioners, academics, politicians, business including civil society movements as it has a potential to sensitise accounting authorities about the plague of conflict of interest.
