Keeping these themes in mind, joined with the broad topical items on the programme, the Forum consequently seeks to provide interventions and sustainable solutions that are rooted in the human rights ethos of the constitution and addressing the goals of the National Development Plan and the pressing triad of poverty, unemployment and inequality. In addressing many of these contemporary challenges – which are not unique to South Africa, as they have global resonances – it is evident that we require radical perspectives as we attempt to transform the political, historical and social landscape of South Africa.

  • Választások És Politikai Szereplők a Dél-Afrikai Köztársaságban
    afrika ma VÁLASZTÁSOK ÉS POLITIKAI SZEREPLŐK A DÉL-AFRIKAI KÖZTÁRSASÁGBAN TETLÁK ÖRS A Dél-afrikai Köztársaság 25 évvel az első szabad választás után és a hatodik szabad választás előtt Afrika és a világ két történelmi jelentőségű esemény huszonötödik évfordulójára emlékezik idén. A ruandai népirtás szörnyűségei mellett ugyanúgy huszonöt év telt el az első szabad dél-afrikai választás eufóriája óta és ezt a huszonöt évet az Afrikai Nemzeti Kongresszus (African National Congress, ANC) töltötte kormányon. Ez a tanulmány két kérdésre keres választ: • Képes lesz-e Cyril Ramaphosa elnök kivezetni az államot utóbbi 25 évének leg- nagyobb válságából, tudja-e konszolidálni a hatalmat gyakorló Afrikai Nemzeti Kongresszust? • Mik jelenleg a legégetőbb társadalmi-gazdasági kérdések, lesz-e/lehet-e megol- dásuk az elnök beiktatását követően? Az apartheid rezsim békés legyőzése óta sok víz lefolyt az Oranje folyón, ám az ország minden hibája ellenére, alapvetően demokratikus állam maradt. Bár itt is prezidenciális köztársaság az államforma, a kontinens sok más országtól eltérően az erős jogosítványokkal rendelkező államelnök személye rendszeresen és demokrati- kus választásokat követően változik. Mindez nem jelenti azt, hogy az egyes elnökök teljesítménye, hatalomgyakorlási módszere akárcsak köszönőviszonyban lenne egy- mással. Az ország éppen egy kilenc éves hanyatlás után próbál magához térni, amit Jacob Zuma elnöksége okozott. A velejéig korrupt ANC-veterán rendszere az állam foglyul ejtésének tankönyvi példáját valósította meg és teljes az egyetértés abban, hogy ez a majdnem két teljes elnöki ciklus az ország elvesztegetett évtizede volt. Zuma kérdőjelekkel teli regnálásának saját pártja vetett véget, amikor 2018 elején megvonták tőle a bizalmat és lemondásra kényszerítették. Utóda, Cyril Ramaphosa sem kívülről érkezett, szakszervezeti vezetői múltjának köszönhetően az ANC főtárgyalója volt már az apartheid-rezsimmel történő tárgyalásokon is.

Volume 6 (2000) South Africa’s Post-Apartheid Foreign Policy Towards Africa Roger Pfister, Centre for International Studies, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology ETH, Zurich Preface 1. Introduction Two principal factors have shaped South Africa’s post-apartheid foreign policy towards Africa. First, the termination of apartheid in 1994 allowed South Africa, for the first time in the country’s history, to establish and maintain contacts with African states on equal terms. Second, the end of the Cold War at the end of the 1980s led to a retreat of the West from Africa, particularly in the economic sphere. Consequently, closer cooperation among all African states has become more pertinent to finding African solutions to African problems.

  • The Foreign Policies of Mandela and Mbeki: a Clear Case of Idealism Vs Realism ?
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Stellenbosch University SUNScholar Repository THE FOREIGN POLICIES OF MANDELA AND MBEKI: A CLEAR CASE OF IDEALISM VS REALISM ? by CHRISTIAN YOULA Thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (International Studies) at Stellenbosch University Department of Political Science Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences Supervisor: Dr Karen Smith March 2009 Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the owner of the copyright thereof and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: 28 February 2009 Copyright © 2009 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved i Abstract After 1994, South African foreign policymakers faced the challenge of reintegrating a country, isolated for many years as a result of the previous government’s apartheid policies, into the international system. In the process of transforming South Africa's foreign identity from a pariah state to a respected international player, some commentators contend that presidents Mandela and Mbeki were informed by two contrasting theories of International Relations (IR), namely, idealism and realism, respectively. In light of the above-stated popular assumptions and interpretations of the foreign policies of Presidents Mandela and Mbeki, this study is motivated by the primary aim to investigate the classification of their foreign policy within the broader framework of IR theory. This is done by sketching a brief overview of the IR theories of idealism, realism and constructivism, followed by an analysis of the foreign policies of these two statesmen in order to identify some of the principles that underpin them.
