The 1990s were the decade of transition from white rule to black
rule in South Africa. In the political sphere the transition was
dramatic. In the economic sphere less so, yet the effects were and
are likely to be far more far reaching. It is the economic impacts
which are likely to determine the future of the country. With the
exception of the diamond-rich Botswana, all the countries of Africa
which underwent the transition from white to black rule experienced
economic decline. Is this to be the fate of South Africa? How was
and is South Africa's historical role as the world's leading gold
producer affected by the transition? Why did some economic policies
succeed and others fail? This book, by leading authorities in the
field, attempts to answer these and other related questions. -- .
