DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The A-Z of South African Politics 2004 is an essential and entertaining guide for navigating the corridors of power in South Africa today. Written by Mail & Guardian reporters and other experts associated with the award-winning newspaper, the book will give readers an under-the-skin look at the country's political movers and shakers. Three previous editions of the A-Z of SA Politics have been best sellers. The M&G decided to compile a fourth edition after continual requests by readers and booksellers for another edition looking at who's in, who's out and who's important in South African political life - and what it means for the rest of us. This lively reference work covers national government, judges, priests and premiers -- and those people, out of government, whom it would be folly to ignore.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →After the transition to democracy in 1994, South Africa implemented an innovative scheme at the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, granting perpetrators conditional amnesty. It essentially calls for the prosecution of those who did not receive amnesty for the crimes they committed during the apartheid conflict. This book provides the first comprehensive analysis of prosecutions after the amnesty process. Drawing on interviews with key protagonists and largely unpublished documents, the volume analyses trials and the political background. It scrutinises the issue in the normative framework of national and international human rights law, and addresses whether the prosecutions were adequately carried out. The study thus allows a concluding evaluation of the justice and consistency of South Africa’s internationally acclaimed amnesty process.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Post-apartheid South African elections have borne an unmistakable racial imprint: Africans vote for one set of parties, whites support a different set of parties, and, with few exceptions, there is no crossover voting between groups. These voting tendencies have solidified the dominance of the ruling African National Congress (ANC) over South African politics and turned South African elections into 'racial censuses'. This book explores the political sources of these outcomes. It argues that although the beginnings of these patterns lie in South Africa's past, in the effects apartheid had on voters' beliefs about race and destiny and the reputations parties forged during this period, the endurance of the census reflects the ruling party's ability to use the powers of office to prevent the opposition from evolving away from its apartheid-era party label. By keeping key opposition parties 'white', the ANC has rendered them powerless, solidifying its hold on power in spite of an increasingly restive and dissatisfied electorate.
