Covid-19 Social Relief of Distress Grant

While the relief measures are a small step in the right direction, they are insufficient to meet the current humanitarian crisis under lockdown conditions. Many poor families are going hungry. The situation remains desperate with many queueing for food parcels. The threat of starvation or even the possibility of death from hunger, rather than from the coronavirus, for many people is real.1 It is within this context that we argue that the social grant relief measures remain inadequate. COVID-19 has underscored the critical role of adequate investments in public health, comprehensive social protection programmes, dignified and decent work, and access to food, water, sanitations systems and housing. -

Article Received on 07/06/2018 Article Revised on 28/06/2018 Article Accepted on 19/07/2018 ABSTRACT Papaver somniferum commonly known as opium poppy or breadseed poppy is a species of flowering plant in the family papaveraceae. It is neurotoxic cerebral somniferous poison, somniferous means “sleep producing”, referring to sedative properties. This poppy is grown as an agricultural crop for one of three primary purposes. The first is to produce seeds that are eaten by humans, commonly known as poppy seed. The second is to produce opium for use mainly by the pharmaceutical industry. The third is to produce alkaloids that are processed by the pharmaceutical industry into drugs. The opium poppy, as its name indicates, is the principal source of opium, the dried latex produced by the seed pods. (It is one of the world’s oldest medicinal plants and remains the only source for narcotic analgesic such as morphine and the cough supressant codeine and semisynthetic derivatives such as oxycodone and naltrexone.). -
When Elephants Fight
WH Electoral violence has scarred the momentous steps Africa has made in the transition from authoritarianism and despotism since the countries of the E continent began to gain their independence some 50 years ago. When Elephants N Fight chronicles contemporary trends and examines electoral conflicts and the WHEN way in which various national, regional, and international players have tried to E resolve them.

The volume brings together ELEPHANTS academics and practitioners in a unique exercise aimed at shedding light on one of the most pressing contemporary issues in African politics – the need to stem the tide of electoral conflict and violence.

Cultural Understandings and Lived Realities of Entrepreneurship In
Cultural Understandings and Lived Realities of Entrepreneurship in Post-Apartheid South Africa by Melissa Beresford A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved September 2018 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Amber Wutich, Chair H. Russell Bernard Takeyuki Tsuda Abigail York ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY December 2018 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines cultural understandings and lived realities of entrepreneurship across South Africa’s economic landscape, comparing the experiences of Cape Town’s Black entrepreneurs in under-resourced townships to those of White entrepreneurs in the wealthy, high finance business district. Based on 13 months of participant observation and interviews with 60 entrepreneurs, I find major differences between these groups of entrepreneurs, which I explain in three independent analyses that together form this dissertation. The first analysis examines the entrepreneurial motivations of Black entrepreneurs in Khayelitsha, Cape Town’s largest township. This analysis gives insight into expressed cultural values of entrepreneurship beyond a priori neoliberal analytical frameworks. The second analysis compares the material resources that Black entrepreneurs in Khayelitsha and White entrepreneurs in downtown Cape Town require for their businesses, and the mechanisms through which they secure these resources. This analysis demonstrates how historical structures of economic inequality affect entrepreneurial strategies. The third analysis assesses the non-material obstacles and challenges that both Black entrepreneurs in Khayelitsha and White entrepreneurs in wealthy areas of downtown Cape Town face in initiating their business ventures. This analysis highlights the importance of cultural capital to entrepreneurship and explains how non-material obstacles differ for entrepreneurs in different positions of societal power. -

The New Cabinet
Response May 30th 2019 The New Cabinet President Cyril Ramaphosa’s cabinet contains quite a number of bold and unexpected appointments, and he has certainly shifted the balance in favour of female and younger politicians. At the same time, a large number of mediocre ministers have survived, or been moved sideways, while some of the most experienced ones have been discarded. It is significant that the head of the ANC Women’s League, Bathabile Dlamini, has been left out – the fact that her powerful position within the party was not enough to keep her in cabinet may be indicative of the President’s growing strength. She joins another Zuma loyalist, Nomvula Mokonyane, on the sidelines, but other strong Zuma supporters have survived. Lindiwe Zulu, for example, achieved nothing of note in five years as Minister of Small Business Development, but has now been given the crucial portfolio of social development; and Nathi Mthethwa has been given sports in addition to arts and culture. The inclusion of Patricia de Lille was unforeseen, and it will be fascinating to see how, as one of the more outspokenly critical opposition figures, she works within the framework of shared cabinet responsibility. Ms de Lille has shown herself willing to change parties on a regular basis and this appointment may presage her absorbtion into the ANC. On the other hand, it may also signal an intention to experiment with a more inclusive model of government, reminiscent of the ‘government of national unity’ that Nelson Mandela favoured. During her time as Mayor of Cape Town Ms de Lille emphasised issues of spatial planning and land-use, and this may have prompted Mr Ramaphosa to entrust her with management of the Department of Public Works’ massive land and property holdings. -
