Seven of the world’s 10 fastest- growing economies currently are in Africa. High prices for the continent’s oil and mineral exports have brought a surge of government revenue and investment, but the growth is occurring in O commodity-poor countries as well. Better governance, less war and the rapid spread of cell phones and other communication technologies are fostering growth even in nations with few natural resources. Debt for - giveness and the rise of China, India and other emerging markets as trading partners and sources of investment also have spurred economies forward. Demographers say that with the continent’s working-age population projected to expand by a third by 2020, Africa could benefit from a “demographic dividend” that would fuel sustained economic growth, even as populations in developed coun - tries and Asia are growing older. Yet, the population boom also poses challenges: Africa’s economies must provide enough jobs for the growing number of workers with expectations of a better life. Construction cranes punctuate the skyline of Luanda, Angola’s capital, where a building boom is being financed in part by high world prices for the country’s oil exports. As in other oil-exporting African countries, a flood of petro-dollars has fueled Angola’s robust growth — more than 14 percent annually in recent years — despite a sluggish global economy.

  • Taking Control of NUM: the Rise of the Communist Faction
    CHAPTER 9 Taking Control of NUM: The Rise of the Communist Faction THE COMMUNIST CADRE The ideal type of leadership I now address is closely linked to the type of organisation NUM became as it was increasingly controlled and shaped by Gwede Mantashe, its general secretary from 1998 to 2006. Mantashe was then elected secretary general of the ANC in 2007. This internal reconfiguration is closely related to a changing balance of forces in the union, which started in the early 2000s when, after Kgalema Motlanthe, James Motlatsi left NUM. A former NUM head office employee once described Mantashe to me as a ‘hard-core communist’, a national leader in the SACP – a party my interlocutor described as the ‘most Stalinist in the world’, recall- ing that when Mantashe heard about the coup d’état against Gorbachev, in 1991, he ‘was so happy when he arrived at work’. With this in mind, I will first consider the question: what does it mean to be a communist cadre in twenty-first century South Africa? This will then allow me to consider NUM’s departure from the type of leadership described earlier, which combined administrative and organisational skills with some form of involvement and proximity with the membership base. In this configuration of the leader–member relationship, the top-down dynamic that structured NUM over time was tempered by mechanisms that allowed the base to retain some degree of worker control, which corrected the union’s centralising tendency. In Mantashe’s ideal of organisation, ‘discipline’ became the preferred type of allegiance, which was mechanically imposed on the union in line with the prin- ciple of ‘democratic centralism’.

  • Organisational Report
    ORGANISATIONAL REPORT We think that a powerful and vigorous movement is impossible without differences ² "true conformity" is possible only in the cemetery. Stalin's article "Our purposes" Pravda #1, (22 January 1912) 1. Introduction 1.1. Since the 2nd National Congress in December 2006, Durban, we have maintained vibrancy, activism, and refocused with zeal and dedication the building of a fighting, educating, learning, agitating youth organisation for socialism. Since that Congress and the National Council held two years later and representing members from more than 600 branches and 29 Districts, the organisation has grown to 1278 branches and with more than 53 794 members from 39 Districts. As we have seen in the past and present within the revolutionary alliance, quantitative growth of organisations brings its own challenges especially if members are not steeped in the traditions of belonging to an organisation, values of selflessness and service to the people. Organisations in many instances are not seen as vehicles of liberating our people but as self serving instruments and thus some organisations seems to crumble in the feet of internal electoral politics which sometimes results in a collapse of organisational activism. This quantitative growth of the YCLSA, therefore, should not become a downward spiral into a political warzone were all that matters is election to political office. We should translate these members, as we declared at the Durban Congress, into activists and then into cadres dedicated for socialism. 1.2. This is an opportunity to maintain organisational stability, unity and cohesion through activism and vibrancy. Of course the growth of the organisation will result in young people whose interests are not those of socialism.

  • A Concept Note the Turfloop Graduate School of Leadership Dialogue Series Ju -.:University of Limpopo
    A Concept Note The Turfloop Graduate School of Leadership Dialogue Series June 2013 Introduction The advent of democracy in South Africa came about as a result of many enduring struggles and human sacrifices. But it was the calibre of leadership then and the dialogues South Africans had among themselves that saved the country from the brink of an imminent civil war. A selfless leadership with a vision, engaged in dialogues, catapulted our country from a pariah state it was, to becoming the envy of the world. South Africa’s Constitution, regarded among the best in the world, is itself a product of visionary leadership and the many dialogues our people had through the Congress for Democratic South Africa (CODESA) process. The making of post-apartheid South Africa cannot, therefore, be understood outside the context of the calibre leadership and dialogues we have had. But the advent of democracy did not mean the end of all social, political or economic ills. Almost two decades after the advent of democracy, some of our old challenges persist while many new vexing ones have also emerged. Poverty is still rife. Inequality is rising. Unemployment is shooting the roof tops. Good governance is a rarity. Corruption is endemic and now and then, the spectre of xenophobia rears its ugly head. Clearly, these problems require strategic leadership in social, political and economic spheres if we are to combat them successfully. Only a nation in dialogue with itself can find solutions to overcome challenges of this magnitude. The Turfloop Graduate School of Leadership (TGSL) is well positioned to provide the platform for the development of the calibre of leadership our country need and to facilitate dialogues to find solutions to our vexing challenges.
