Background November 2006 marked the 15th anniversary of the conference and subsequent publication of Putting Women on the Agenda. This was the first regional conference held to galvinize the struggle for women’s rights in the possibility of a new constitutional dispensation in South Africa. Together with others that followed, it was a significant event in the development of the South African women’s movement as a place for engaging the new democracy: network building and consolidation, formulation of policy and advocacy strategies, legislative drafting, consultation on the creation of the national gender machinery; and providing support for women who moved from activism to the state.

Its source materials are numerous archival collections, newspapers and over 40 personal interviews. This study addresses two questions relating to F.W. de Klerk's use of the referendum mechanism in 1992.

  • Points of Irony Sharing Office Space with Cllr Achmat Williams of The
    Points of Irony Sharing office space with Cllr Achmat Williams of the National Party South Africa is interesting. When some politicians make the news for all the wrong reasons, Cllr Williams always has a story to tell. That Pierre Uys the African National Congress [ANC] Chief Whips and the Democratic Alliance [DA] Chief Whip Mark Wiley blame the other’s party for mischief is highly ironic. Few people know that both these politicians were important leaders in the former National Party in the dark days of Apartheid. According to Cllr Williams the question, can a leopard change its spots have been answered by these two Apartheid era politicians as they battle it out for attention on the floor of the provincial legislature. While those who suffered under Apartheid continue to struggle to eke out a living with high rates, water and electricity costs, there are others who benefitted from Apartheid who continue to benefit. Since ordinary voter has no power to dictate what persons represent them in the provincial or national parliament, perhaps the time has come to review our electoral process. Since Cllrs are elected via direct and proportional voting, can the same rules not apply to parliamentarians? With this option, the electorate knows exactly on whose behalf Marius Fransman and others speaks when they refer to “the people” or “the poorest of the poor”. Pierre Uys could also clarify on whose behalf he interrupted Helen Zille while the rest of us were trying to listen to the Premier speech. Perhaps the Cape Times conduct a survey to determine how many parliamentarians really work in a township or district to which they are assigned.

  • The Politics and Governance of Basic Education: a Tale of Two South African Provinces

The research explored two core questions: how politics and background institutions influence educational bureaucracies; and the relative merits of hierarchical and horizontal governance. South Africa’s institutional arrangements provide a ‘natural experiment’ for analysing these questions. While policymaking, the regulatory framework and resourcing are uniform nationally, responsibility for implementation is delegated to the country’s nine provinces, which differ substantially from one another, both politically and institutionally. The Western Cape emerges as a strong performer relative to other South African provinces. However, econometric analysis confirms that, notwithstanding strong bureaucracy and abundant resources, its outcomes were below those achieved in Kenya. The institutional arrangements also assign substantial responsibilities ‘horizontally’ to school governing bodies, where parents are in the majority.

  • ROOM to MANOEUVRE: Understanding the Development of Provincial Government in South Africa, 1994-2004
    ROOM TO MANOEUVRE: Understanding The Development Of Provincial Government In South Africa, 1994-2004 (Case Studies: Gauteng and Mpumalanga) Thabo Jackson Rapoo A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Humanities, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Johannesburg, 2005 ABSTRACT Since its inception in 1994, South Africa’s federal system of government has been the subject of intensive scholarly debates and wide-ranging academic writing. In particular, the functioning of the country’s provincial institutions has engendered heated public debates over the years about whether or not they have played their proper role as institutions of democratic governance. The major challenge that faced the framers of the country’s new constitution, and which continues to face policy makers currently, was to create functioning and effective democratic institutions of government at sub-national level. In addition to their role as democratic/political institutions of governance, the provinces are also agents of socio-economic development and the delivery of basic social services to citizens. In the course of attempting to fulfil their functional responsibilities since 1994, the provinces have encountered enormous political, constitutional, administrative and logistical problems that have led to widespread dissatisfaction about their performance and effectiveness. In fact, this dissatisfaction has also led to fundamental questions being raised about the future of the provinces in South Africa. This thesis seeks to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of the provincial system during the 1994-2004 period, by looking at the question: to what extent has the provincial system of government fulfilled its responsibilities of promoting democratic governance and ensuring effective delivery of social services to citizens at sub-national level? It also provides an in-depth examination and analysis of the development of South Africa’s federal system of government between 1994 and 2004.

The examination will be conducted in English. Abstract Monaco, S. 2008. Neighbourhood Politics in Transition. Residents’ Associations and Local Government in Post-Apartheid Cape Town. Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. Skrifter utgivna av Statsvetenskapliga föreningen i Uppsala 168. 223 pp. Uppsala. ISBN 978-91-554-7084-5. This study focuses on the changing practices of South African residents’ associations and their relationship with political parties and local government from 1990 to 2006, with the aim to examine how associations in Cape Town respond when they are confronted with a new democratic institutional and political context. Two empirical questions guide the analysis: How do residents’ associations perceive that the changing political context has affected them in their attempts to influence agenda-setting and decision-making? And how can we understand the process in which they decide to act, or not act, in response to important changes in their political environment? Drawing on social movement theory, most importantly the notions of political opportunity structures and framing processes, an analysis is made of the most significant changes in Cape Town’s post-apartheid institutional and political context. The empirical findings – based on questionnaires, interviews and an in-depth study of the township of Imizamo Yethu in Hout Bay – show that associations in socio-economically distinct areas have different perceptions of their prospects of affecting agenda-setting and decision-making.

Policy shifts of the post-apartheid period not only necessitated new visions for the future but also new structures. The creation of a value-based new identity in foreign policy needed to be accompanied by a transformation of institutions relevant for the decision-making process in foreign policy. Looking at foreign policy in the era of President Mbeki, however, it becomes obvious that Max Weber’s observation that “in a modern state the actual ruler is necessarily and unavoidably the bureaucracy, since power is exercised neither through parliamentary speeches nor monarchical enumerations but through the routines of administration”,* no longer holds in the South African context.
