  • South Africa Political Snapshot New ANC President Ramaphosa’S Mixed Hand Holds Promise for South Africa’S Future
    South Africa Political Snapshot New ANC President Ramaphosa’s mixed hand holds promise for South Africa’s future South Africa’s ruling party, the African National Congress, yesterday (20 December) concluded its 54th National Conference at which it elected a new leadership. South African Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa was announced the ANC’s new leader against a backdrop of fast-deteriorating investor confidence in the country. The new team will likely direct the ANC’s leadership of the country for the next five years and beyond. Mr Ramaphosa’s victory is not complete. The election results have been the closest they have been of any ANC leadership election in recent times. The results for the top six leaders of the ANC (Deputy President, National Chairperson, Secretary-General, Treasurer-General and Deputy Secretary-General) and the 80-member National Executive Committee (NEC - the highest decision-making body of the party between conferences) also represent a near 50-50 composition of the two main factions of the ANC. Jacob Zuma, Mr Ramaphosa’s predecessor, still retains the presidency of South Africa’s government (the next general election is still 18 months away). It enables Mr Zuma to state positions difficult for the new ANC leadership to find clawback on, and to leverage whatever is left of his expanded patronage network where it remains in place. A pointed reminder of this was delivered on the morning the ANC National Conference commenced, when President Zuma committed the government to provide free tertiary education for students from homes with combined incomes of below R600 000 – an commitment termed unaffordable by an expansive judicial investigation, designed to delay his removal from office and to paint him as a victim in the event it may be attempted.

CLAREMONT MCKENNA COLLEGE AN ANALYSIS OF EDUCATION REFORM IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA SUBMITTED TO PROFESSOR WILLIAM ASCHER AND DEAN PETER UVIN WRITTEN BY KATHARINE MIRANDA EGER FOR SENIOR THESIS SPRING APRIL 25, 2016 Abstract Sub-Saharan Africa continues to fall behind other developing regions regarding educational attainment, despite recent progress in enrollment. This thesis examines a variety of external conditional factors that could contribute to a country’s relative success, in terms of years spent in school using a prediction model that compares years enrolled in secondary education as a foundation to determine over- and under-performing countries in sub-Saharan Africa. By exploring various educational policies, historical patterns, and projects executed in Rwanda, South Africa, Ghana, and Botswana, this thesis sheds light on four main challenges that can impact educational attainment: ethnic and racial tensions, an acute shortage of learning materials and trained teachers, inappropriate curricula, and high costs of education. Some of these challenges have been met with an array of policies, with mixed results in terms of the soundness and fairness of policies as well as the effectiveness of implementation.

Government-Final.indd 121 11/22/17 10:05 AM GOVERNMENT SYSTEMS South Africa is a constitutional democracy with a three-tier system of government and an independent judiciary. The national, provincial and local levels of government all have legislative and executive authority in their own spheres, and are defined in the Constitution as “distinctive, interdependent and interrelated.” The Constitution The Constitution is the supreme law of the land.

  • Ramaphosa Unveils Cabinet and Cracks the Whip on Ministers
    SAFE HANDS ENTRUSTED WITH THE ECONOMY Ramaphosa unveils cabinet and cracks the whip on ministers An emboldened President Cyril Ramaphosa stamped his new-found authority on the government late Wednesday evening, trimming the Cabinet by eight ministerial posts and flexing his muscles by leaving out in the cold some of the most controversial individuals. Ramaphosa retained the reluctant but trusted Tito Mboweni as Minister of Finance, whilst placing Ebrahim Patel in charge of a combined ‘super economic portfolio’ which includes Trade and Industry as well as Economic Development. In spite of a blatant attempt by the Public Protector to rule Pravin Gordhan out of contention for Cabinet by hastily issuing a report which founded Gordhan guilty of violating the Executive Ethics Code, Ramaphosa evidently considered Advocate Busisiwe Mkhwebane’s own credibility in proceeding to reappoint Gordhan to the critical Public Enterprises post. The extractive industry’s darling, former mineworkers’ union boss Gwede Mantashe, was charged with responsibility for If we are to make effective progress in Energy, now combined with his previous Mineral Resources building the South Africa that we all portfolio. want, it is important that we deploy into In what has been widely welcomed as a deft reconfiguration positions of responsibility people who are of Government, Ramaphosa amalgamated several ministries committed, capable and hard-working, and axed the likes of ANC Women’s League President and who have integrity.
