  • 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.

  • Media Storm Over Malema's Tender Excesses
    Legalbrief | your legal news hub Thursday 23 September 2021 Media storm over Malema's tender excesses A picture of unrestrained excess and cronyism is painted in three Sunday newspaper reports claiming ANC Youth League president Julius Malema's millionaire lifestyle is being bank-rolled by lucrative government contracts awarded to his companies, writes Legalbrief. The Sunday Times, City Press and Rapport all allege Malema has benefited substantially from several tenders - and that most of them stem from his home province Limpopo, where he wields significant influence. According to the Sunday Times, official tender and government documents show Malema was involved in more than 20 contracts, each worth between R500 000 and R39m between 2007 and 2008. One of Malema's businesses, SGL Engineering Projects, has profited from more than R130m worth of tenders in just two years. Among the tenders awarded to SGL, notes the report, was one by Roads Agency Limpopo, which has a budget of over R2bn, and which is headed by Sello Rasethaba, a close friend of Malema. Rasethaba was appointed last year shortly after Malema's ally, Limpopo Premier Cassel Mathale, took office. Full Sunday Times report Full City Press report Full report in Rapport Both the ANC and the Youth League have strongly defended Malema, In a report on the News24 site, the ANC pointed out Malema had not breached any law or code of ethics by being involved in business. Spokesperson Brian Sokutu said: 'Comrade Malema is neither a member of Parliament or a Cabinet Minister and he has therefore not breached any law or code of ethics by being involved in business.' ID leader Patricia De Lille said Malema should stop pretending to represent the poor when he was living in opulence earned from the poor and ordinary taxpayers in a society plagued by the worst inequalities in the world.

  • 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.

    Abstract The purpose of this study is to investigate how the media have been reporting on land and agrarian reform developments in South Africa focusing on the post green paper (2011). Land and agrarian reform has been a sensitive field in the post-apartheid South Africa mainly because of the racial disparity on land ownership and the widening gap between the rich and poor. This study explores the literature available on land and agrarian reform, tracing the history of dispossession back to 1650 when Jan van Riebeck built a Fort in Cape Town in the shape of designated reserves. The 1894 Glen Grey Act, the 1913 Native Land Act and the 1936 Native Trust and Land Act as well as sundry other apartheid racist laws led to forced removals of native South African from their fertile lands into reserves, whilst the minority whites were acquiring vast tracks of farmland (Hendricks 2000, Baldwin 1975). This study further explores post apartheid government’s efforts to reverse the history of dispossession. The Department of Land Affairs introduced sundry policy interventions since 1994 which were supported by the Constitution of South Africa and in line with the dictates of the RDP program. These include the White Paper on Land Affairs (1997) policy framework, and several laws on land tenure, restitution and redistribution. South African democracy is more than two decades old, yet the land reform process is far from achieving the 30% target which had been set to be met in five years. More than three quarters of the productive agricultural land is still in the hands of the white minority, communal tenure system have not yet fully been addressed, farm labourers are still working under squalid, land restitution has been successful mainly on urban financial compensation claims and some rural land claims are still to be resolved.
