Limits to Liberation After Apartheid - Citizenship, Governance and Culture in South Africa (Paperback)

The conditions for democracy in South Africa cannot be taken for granted as many South African citizens remain on the margins, outside of the formal democratic system. The post-apartheid public sphere in South Africa has been characterised by race tensions and distrust. Socio-economic inequalities and structural unemployment are contributing to widespread crises. In addressing the conceptual andempirical questions relating to the transition to democracy, the contributors to this volume take the questions of culture and identity seriously, drawing attention to the creative agency of citizens of the 'new' South Africa. They raise important questions concerning the limits of citizenship and procedural democracy. Steven L. Robins is Professor of Social Anthropology in the University of Stellenbosch North America: Ohio U Press
