In the Balance - Debating the State of Democracy in South Africa (Paperback)

Five leading political commentators record and measure the depth and degree of democracy in their area of specialisation, grading South Africa's performance to date. This book produces a profile of South Africa's democracy seven years after the 1994 founding election. The five areas of inquiry are: * Consensus on and participation in government - Steven Friedman * Selection of decision-makers - Sipho Maseko, * Popular control over decision-makers - Ebrahim Harvey * Protecting citizens' equality - Cathi Albertyn * Economic and social inequality - Bongani Khumalo Includes contributions by Michael Spicer of the Anglo American Corporation and Molefe Tsele of the South African Council of Churches. In the Balance incorporates Idasa's Democracy Index, a tool for assessing the state of South Africa's democracy, to be completed by readers.
