The book examines the reform of the communication sector in South
Africa as a detailed and extended case study in political
transformation - the transition from apartheid to democracy. The
reform of broadcasting, telecommunications, the state information
agency and the print press from apartheid-aligned apparatuses to
accountable democratic institutions took place via a complex
political process in which civil society activism, embodying a
post-social democratic ideal, largely won out over the powerful
forces of formal market capitalism and older models of state
control. In the cautious acceptance of the market, the civil
society organizations sought to use the dynamism of the market
while thwarting its inevitable inequities. Forged in the crucible
of a difficult transition to democracy, communication reform in
South Africa was navigated between the National Party's embrace of
the market and the African National Congress leadership's default
statist orientation.
