  • Biography: Trevor Manuel
    Biography: Trevor Manuel Trevor Manuel served as a Cabinet Minister from 1994 to 2014 under the first four Presidents of democratic South Africa: Mandela, Mbeki, Motlanthe and Zuma. He was first appointed to Cabinet as Minister of Trade and Industry in May 1994, a portfolio he held for two years. In April 1996, he became the Minister of Finance, steering the South African economy for 13 years as one of the world’s longest-serving finance ministers. During his last term in office, he served as Minister in the Presidency responsible for the National Planning Commission, a position he held from May 2009 to May 2014. During his two decades as a Cabinet Minister he also served as a Member of Parliament, representing the African National Congress in a system of proportional representation. His ministerial career highlights have tracked two decades of major social and economic development in the South African economy. As Minister of Trade and Industry, he led the process of reintegrating South Africa into the global economy after decades of sanctions and disinvestment. Domestically, he introduced extensive support measures for small, medium and micro-enterprises to boost local economic development and grow business enterprise. During his lengthy tenure as Minister of Finance he stabilised the macro-economy, returning the economy to growth, significantly transformed the fiscal system in respect of taxation and public spending, reduced South Africa’s fiscal deficit and debt, and introduced an intergovernmental system to manage expenditure efficiently across the three spheres of government. He spearheaded the Financial Sector Charter, a first of its kind in the country, aimed at transforming the financial sector and providing financial services to the majority of South Africans previously excluded from the formal economy.

  • Trekking Outward
    TREKKING OUTWARD A CHRONOLOGY OF MEETINGS BETWEEN SOUTH AFRICANS AND THE ANC IN EXILE 1983–2000 Michael Savage University of Cape Town May 2014 PREFACE In the decade preceding the dramatic February 1990 unbanning of South Africa’s black liberatory movements, many hundreds of concerned South Africans undertook to make contact with exile leaders of these organisations, travelling long distances to hold meetings in Europe or in independent African countries. Some of these “treks”, as they came to be called, were secret while others were highly publicised. The great majority of treks brought together South Africans from within South Africa and exile leaders of the African National Congress, and its close ally the South African Communist Party. Other treks involved meetings with the Pan Africanist Congress, the black consciousness movement, and the remnants of the Non-European Unity Movement in exile. This account focuses solely on the meetings involving the ANC alliance, which after February 1990 played a central role in negotiating with the white government of F.W. de Klerk and his National Party regime to bring about a new democratic order. Without the foundation of understanding established by the treks and thousands of hours of discussion and debate that they entailed, it seems unlikely that South Africa’s transition to democracy could have been as successfully negotiated as it was between 1990 and the first democratic election of April 1994. The following chronology focuses only on the meetings of internally based South Africans with the African National Congress (ANC) when in exile over the period 1983–1990. Well over 1 200 diverse South Africans drawn from a wide range of different groups in the non- governmental sector and cross-cutting political parties, language, educational, religious and community groups went on an outward mission to enter dialogue with the ANC in exile in a search to overcome the escalating conflict inside South Africa.

  • I a CULTURAL HERITAGE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN
    i A CULTURAL HERITAGE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR THULAMELA HERITAGE SITE by TSHIMANGADZO ISRAEL NEMAHENI Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of MA HERITAGE AND MUSEUM STUDIES (COURSE WORK) In the Faculty of Arts University of Pretoria Pretoria August 2003 Supervisor: Ms M. Van Heerden Co-leader: Dr. R.C. de Jong © University of Pretoria ii SUMMARY A CULTURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR THULAMELA HERITAGE SITE. STUDENT: Tshimangadzo Israel Nemaheni STUDY LEADER: Ms M. van Heerden CO-LEADER: Dr. R. C. de Jong DEPARTMENT: Historical and Heritage Studies DEGREE: MA Heritage and Museum Studies-Coursework This mini-thesis serves as an introduction to the drawing up of a Cultural Resource Management (CRM) plan for Thulamela Heritage Site in the Kruger National Park. It is envisaged that this will be a strategy by which Thulamela heritage resources (including natural and cultural elements) will be identified, their significance assessed, and interpretations constructed to guide their conservation and presentation in a manner that is consistent with their availability for public appreciation or enjoyment. Thulamela Project involves the process of locating, assessing, and dealing appropriately with the Thulamela heritage resources which are represented by the physical manifestation of humanity’s interaction with the natural world around the site and surrounding landscape of Thulamela. This thesis will serve as a guideline towards designing a CRM plan for Thulamela Heritage Site that will be practical. Most of the issues here are management plan issues that the KNP should start implementing iii in order to preserve and conserve the site for future generations.

  • Jacob Zuma: the Man of the Moment Or the Man for the Moment? Alex Michael & James Montagu
    Research & Assessment Branch African Series Jacob Zuma: The Man of the Moment or the Man for the Moment? Alex Michael & James Montagu 09/08 Jacob Zuma: The Man of the Moment or the Man for the Moment? Alex Michael & James Montagu Key Findings • Zuma is a pragmatist, forging alliances based on necessity rather than ideology. His enlarged but inclusive cabinet, rewards key allies with significant positions, giving minor roles to the leftist SACP and COSATU. • Long-term ANC allies now hold key Justice, Police and State Security ministerial positions, reducing the likelihood of legal charges against him resurfacing. • The blurring of party and state to the detriment of public institutions, which began under Mbeki, looks set to continue under Zuma. • Zuma realises that South Africa relies too heavily on foreign investment, but no real change in economic policy could well alienate much of his populist support base and be decisive in the longer term. 09/08 Jacob Zuma: The Man of the Moment or the Man for the Moment? Alex Michael & James Montagu INTRODUCTION Jacob Zuma, the new President of the Republic of South Africa and the African National Congress (ANC), is a man who divides opinion. He has been described by different groups as the next Mandela and the next Mugabe. He is a former goatherd from what is now called KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) with no formal education and a long career in the ANC, which included a 10 year spell at Robben Island and 14 years of exile in Mozambique, Swaziland and Zambia. Like most ANC leaders, his record is not a clean one and his role in identifying and eliminating government spies within the ranks of the ANC is well documented.

  • A Critical Appraisal of Policy on Educator Post
    A CRITICAL APPRAISAL OF POLICY ON EDUCATOR POST PROVISIONING IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN KWAZULU-NATAL by INBANATHAN NAICKER Thesis submitted in fulfillment of the DOCTOR OF EDUCATION (DEd) in the discipline Education Management and Leadership, School of Education and Development, Faculty of Education, University of KwaZulu-Natal PROMOTER: Prof. Thengani H. Ngwenya DATE SUBMITTED: November 2005 DECLARATION I declare that this thesis titled, A CRITICAL APPRAISAL OF POLICY ON EDUCATOR POST PROVISIONING IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN KWAZULU- NATAL is my own work and that all the sources that have been used or quoted, have been indicated and acknowledged by means of complete references. ______________________ Inbanathan Naicker Reg. No.: 8116342 November 2005 ii ABSTRACT Historically, educator post provisioning in South African public schools has been a contentious issue. Informed by the apartheid ideology, the staffing of schools was skewed both quantitatively and qualitatively in favour of the white population group. In contrast, the schools catering for the black population had to contend with high learner-educator ratios and poorly qualified educators. With the coming into power of the first democratically elected government in 1994 there was growing optimism that equity, redress and social justice would prevail in all spheres of society, including education. In the education arena there were significant attempts at addressing the inequity that prevailed in terms of educator distribution. This study which is grounded in the field of policy analysis, critically analyses the policy on educator post provisioning in public schools in KwaZulu-Natal in the post apartheid era.

  • General Information
    1. GENERAL INFORMATION 1.2 Foreword by the Minister of Arts and Culture During the first year of its existence, the Department of Arts and Culture has enjoyed considerable success. Being Minister of Arts and Culture has provided me with the opportunity to interact with the ever-burgeoning arts sector on both formal and informal occasions. Throughout the past year a number of projects have highlighted the broad spectrum of the work covered by this annual report and the new steps we are taking as the Department of Arts and Culture. During the course of the past 12 months, the Deputy Minister and I undertook visits to most of our associated institutions, which deal with performing arts, heritage, film and language services. I was encouraged by the good work they are engaged in. Discussions centred on good governance, particularly the implementation of the Public Finance Management Act, which Government had passed to ensure accountability. It was also a fact-finding exercise to interact more directly Dr Z Pallo Jordan with the people doing the work. These consultations, along with our Minister interaction with the broader arts community during the izimbizo, informed our interaction with Parliament, especially during the Budget Vote presentation. Izimbizo were a successful platform during which I witnessed first hand the talent of the youth throughout South Africa. The message from the grassroots was that though there are still immense challenges, the policies government is following are sound and are improving access to the arts and culture for the ordinary citizen. In the area of literature, possibly the largest corpus of African literature in English was unveiled at the Pietermaritzburg campus of the University of KwaZulu-Natal, when the Centre of African Literary Studies was opened there last year.
