  • Eff Statement on Second National Peoples Assembly, Parliament Deployments and Other Political Issues
    EFF STATEMENT ON SECOND NATIONAL PEOPLES ASSEMBLY, PARLIAMENT DEPLOYMENTS AND OTHER POLITICAL ISSUES Tuesday, 02 July, 2019 NATIONAL PEOPLE’S ASSEMBLY At its Special Meeting convened on the 1st of July, 2019, the Central Command Team resolved that the EFF Second National People’s Assembly will be convened on the 13 - 16 December, 2019 at the Expo Centre, Nasrec under the theme “Consolidating the Ground Towards Socialist Power”. The National People’s Assembly is an elective conference of the EFF, the highest decision-making body and, according to the EFF Constitution, takes place every five years. Accordingly, the CCT has adopted guidelines that pave the path towards the election of delegates from branches, including in regions, and provinces. These will be published on the EFF website for easy access. Within these guidelines are strict rules and deadlines for election of delegates, audit of branches, as well as conduct of all fighters and commissars on lobbying for leadership positions. Members and leaders of the EFF are therefore called upon to internalise these guidelines and participate in the lead up to this assembly with the highest discipline and determination. The Discussion Documents will also be published on the EFF website and they will be sent to branches, so that branches are not only ceased with matters of leadership but they also discuss the state of the nation in South Africa through the Discussion Documents of the EFF and provide what could be a sustainable solution to the challenges that are confronting the poor masses of our people on the ground. PARLIAMENT COMMITTEE DEPLOYMENTS Post 2019 General Elections, the EFF increased its seats from 31 to 53 Members of Parliament (MPs), with 44 in the National Assembly (NA) and 9 in the National Council of Provinces (NCOP).

  • Negotiating Muti Ethnic Claims in Multi Hnic Societies
    AUTONOMY AND ETHNICITY Negotiating Competing Claims in Multi-ethnic States This book deals with one of the most urgent problems of contemporary times: the political organisation of multi- ethnic states. Most major conflicts of our time are inter- nal to the state and revolve around the claims of access to or the redesign of the state. Responses to ethnic con- flicts have ranged from oppression and ethnic cleansing to accommodations of ethnic claims through affirmative policies, special forms of representation, power sharing, and the integration of minorities. One of the most sought after, and resisted, devices for conflict management is autonomy. Within an overarching framework that ex- plores different understandings of ethnic consciousness and the variety of territorial autonomies, the authors examine the experiences of spatial distribution of power in Canada, India, China, South Africa, Spain, the former Yugoslavia, Ethiopia and Eritrea, Sri Lanka, Cyprus, Papua New Guinea and Australia. YASH GHAI is the Sir Y. K. Pao Professor of Public Law at the University of Hong Kong, before which he was Professor of Law at the University of Warwick, Dean of Law at the University of East Africa, and visiting profes- sor at Yale University, Harvard University, University of Toronto, National University of Singapore and Univer- sity of Wisconsin. His previous books include Public Law and Political Change in Kenya (1970); Political Economy of Law (1987); Law, Administration and the Politics of Decen- tralisation in Papua New Guinea (1993); Law, Government and Politics in Pacific Island States (1988); Hong Kong's New Constitutional Order (1997, 2nd edn 1998); Hong Kong's Constitutional Debate (2000).

LeMelle, Chairman Jennifer Davis, Executive Director MEMORANDUM TO: Key Labor Contacts FROM: Mike Fleshman, Labor Desk Coordinator DATE: June 7, 1994 South Africa After Apartheid: A Whole New Ball Game, With Labor On The Team Friends, The victory parties are finally over and, in the wake of Nelson Mandela's landslide election as South Africa's first-ever Black President, South African workers are returning to their jobs and to the enormous challenges that lie ahead. For the 1.2 million-member Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU), whose support for Mandela's ANC was critical to the movement's runaway 62.5 percent victory, the end of apartheid brings new opportunities for South African workers, but also some new problems. One result of the ANC victory is the presence of key labor leaders in the new government. Two high ranking unionists, former COSATU General Secretary Jay Naidoo, and former Assistant General Secretary Sydney Mufamadi, were named to cabinet posts -- Mufamadi as Minister of Safety and Security in charge of the police, and Naidoo as Minister Without Portfolio, tasked with implementing the ANC/COSATU blueprint for social change, the national Reconstruction and Development Program (RDP). Former National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa (NUMSA) economist Alec Erwin was named Deputy Minister for Finance. Former Mineworkers head Cyril Ramaphosa, elected General Secretary of the ANC in 1991, will exert great influence on the shape of the permanent new constitution as the chair of the parliamentary constitution-writing body.

The underlying shifts in the geopolitical environment have been clear: a US with less interest in assuming leadership responsibilities; US allies, particularly in Europe, that are weaker and looking to hedge bets on US intentions; and two frenemies, Russia and China, seeking to assert themselves as (limited) alternatives to the US—Russia primarily on the security front in its extended backyard, and China primarily on the economic front regionally, and, increasingly, globally. These trends have accelerated with the populist revolt against “globalism”—first in the Middle East, then in Europe, and now in the US. Through 2016, you could see the G-Ze- ro picking up speed on multiple fronts: the further deterioration of the transatlantic al- liance with Brexit and the “no” vote on the Italy referendum; the end of America’s Asia pivot with the collapse of the Trans-Pacific Partnership and the Philippine president announcing a break with the US; the Russian victory in Syria after backing President Bashar al Assad through nearly six years of war. But with the shock election of Donald Trump as president of the US, the G-Zero world is now fully upon us.

  • The Commodification of Water in Soweto and Its Implications for Social Justice
    The Commodification of water in Soweto and its implications for social justice Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Sociology Department, School of Social Sciences, University of the Witwatersrand. Name: Ebrahim Harvey. Student No: 0300827E Supervisor: Prof. Jacklyn Cock Date: 12 November 2007 Abstract This thesis combines studies in urban, environmental and public sociology and political science. Adequate and unimpeded access to water supply in poor black communities arguably lie at the heart of urban and environmental sociology, social policy and democratic local government. It explores water as a basic and non-substitutable resource and a human right, the countervailing pressures to commercialise and commodify it and the evolving countermovement to these pressures. It also explores the sufficiency of the present water lifeline and the appropriateness or otherwise of prepaid water meters in poor communities and the disempowering and alienating social consequences they appear to have. The contending theses of commodification and decommodification and their underlying social relations is the theoretical framework within which we situate the study. The first section deals with the aim of the study, its rationale, methodology and the theoretical considerations. The second part focuses on the historical and institutional dynamics which both inform and are consequential to water commercialisation and commodification in South Africa. It explores and analyses the technology, ideology and sociology of prepaid water meters in general terms and the specific impacts they have had in Soweto, where the case study is situated. It furthermore critically explores these impacts in relation to the notions of human rights and social justice in the South African context.
