In the light of global and domestic developments since his 2009
publication Zumanomics," Raymond Parsons now reassesses the
economic prospects for South Africa post-Mangaung and following the
2014 general election. While the original book was a collective
effort with other contributors, this is an individual one. Many red
lights are flashing for the economy and South Africa is struggling
to avoid a low-growth trap. What are the conditions for the success
of the National Development Plan's vision for 2030, and can it be
translated into reality? What will happen after the 2014 election?
Drawing on his considerable experience and analysis of South
Africa's political economy, Professor Parsons redefines and updates
"Zumanomics" in light of these developments. Will South Africa be
able to move successfully to address the triple challenges of
unemployment, poverty, and inequality identified by President Zuma
as the three greatest issues needing South Africa's attention? How
can the country improve its global competitiveness? How can South
Africa best build on its strengths and address its weaknesses? This
is a timely book, comprehensive, insightful, and recommended
reading for individuals interested in understanding the challenges
for new government and the way forward toward unlocking the growth
potential with a shared prosperity for all in South Africa.
