Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This powerful volume represents the broadest engagement with disability issues in South Africa yet. Themes include theoretical approaches to, and representations of, disability; governmental and civil society responses to disability issues; aspects of education as these pertain to the oppression/liberation of disabled people; social security for disabled people; the complex politics permeating service provision relationships; and a consideration of disability in relation to human spaces - physical, economic and philosophical. Firmly located within the social model of disability, this collection resonates powerfully with contemporary thinking and research in the disability field and sets a new benchmark for cutting-edge debates in a transforming South Africa.

Download or read book Foreign Policy in Post-Apartheid South Africa written by Adekeye Adebajo and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: South Africa is the most industrialized power in Africa. It was rated the continent's largest economy in 2016 and is the only African member of the G20. It is also the only strategic partner of the EU in Africa. Yet despite being so strategically and economically significant, there is little scholarship that focuses on South Africa as a regional hegemon. This book provides the first comprehensive assessment of South Africa's post-Apartheid foreign policy. Over its 23 chapters - -and with contributions from established Africa, Western, Asian and American scholars, as well as diplomats and analysts - the book examines the current pattern of the country's foreign relations in impressive detail. The geographic and thematic coverage is extensive, including chapters on: the domestic imperatives of South Africa's foreign policy; peace-making; defence and security; bilateral relations in Southern, Central, West, Eastern and North Africa; bilateral relations with the US, China, Britain, France and Japan; the country's key external multilateral relations with the UN; the BRICS economic grouping; the African, Caribbean and Pacific Group (ACP); as well as the EU and the World Trade Organization (WTO). An essential resource for researchers, the book will be relevant to the fields of area studies, foreign policy, history, international relations, international law, security studies, political economy and development studies.

This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first two decades of South Africa's democracy have seen a growing breadth and depth in the analysis of South Africa's foreign policy. This second volume of the South African Foreign Policy Review considers the continuity and change in South Africa's foreign policy over the course of two decades, with a particular focus on the more recent approach under the Zuma administration. This includes a closer look at the principles, practices and partnerships that shape South Africa's international relations and is aimed at supporting knowledge for reflection on South Africa's conduct internationally and for anticipating ways in which the country may approach international relations and foreign policy going forward. It discusses the foreign policy making and the nature of South Africa's diplomatic relations with Africa, Asia, the Middle East and North Africa, Latin America, Europe and North America, as well as the country's participation in multilateral diplomacy in Africa, the global South and at the United Nations (UN) to expand the discussion and deepen the debate on the future shape and direction of South Africa's foreign policy.

This book was released on 2017-07-06 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book outlines the findings and suggestions of the Law and Society Association’s International Research Collaborations, which focused on the African Union’s Agenda 2063. This outlined the ideal Africa aspired to by the year 2063: ‘the Africa we want’. The authors examine socio-economic rights issues and their impact on developing a strong educational agenda that can drive Africa to realize Agenda 2063. As Africa’s development has remained slow in the face of many challenges, the need to embrace good governance, rule of law and human rights obligations are major tools to realize the continent’s potential. The project focuses in particular on the central place of education law and policy in achieving the goals of Agenda 2063.

Download or read book The New Afrabia written by Chris Landsberg and published by Emirates Center for Strategic Studies and Research. This book was released on 2007-06-12 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, South Africa has emerged as a pivotal African state-one which seeks to give meaning and substance to the notion of Ali Mazrui’s “Afrabia,” by gearing its already crowded foreign policy agenda towards advancing strategic Afro-Arab relations. To this end, South Africa has articulated African, Arab and Middle East agendas. This has involved the positioning of the country in a way that allows it to become a critical player in shaping the development agenda of the continent, partly through its efforts in building and operating two pan-African bodies, namely the African Union (AU) and the New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD). The Middle East occupies a high strategic plane in South Africa’s foreign policy. South Africa has pursued a very independent posture vis-à-vis the conflict in Iraq. Before the US-led coalition’s invasion in March 2003, President Mbeki and his envoys tried to encourage both the Western powers and Saddam Hussein’s regime to fulfill international obligations. Saudi Arabia, Syria and Iran remain key players despite their strained relations with the United States. South Africa has been openly concerned about the US posture towards these countries; it has stressed the right of Iran, as guaranteed by the NPT, to develop a civilian nuclear capability and program, and has called for the nuclear stand-off to be settled peacefully and through diplomatic means. For many years, the Arabian Gulf region has been of strategic importance to South Africa because it is the source of most of the Republic’s oil imports. Since 1999, South Africa’s economic interaction with the region has expanded significantly, partly as a result of bilateral agreements established with a number of the Gulf States, but also because South Africa considers the Gulf a strategic priority in terms of foreign policy. Since 1994, the Gulf States have become steadily more confident about South Africa as a reliable destination for investment and as a trustworthy supplier of goods and services. South Africa needs to work harder to cultivate a strong presence and identity in the Middle East, especially in the Gulf countries, where the opportunities for economic dividends are great. Enhancing opportunities in the Middle East will require a more strategic approach on the home front, and a multi-pronged approach that would see greater collaboration and harmonization between key actors involved in the management of the country’s external affairs and foreign policy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agenda Setting and Public Policy in Africa examines how decision makers have managed and mismanaged public policy issues in sub-Saharan Africa. It analyses the neglected issue of how ideas about public policy are generated, by whom and for what purpose. Persistent problems such as political instability, environmental pollution, famine, hunger, desertification, rent-seeking and incessant intra-conflicts across the continent are explored in a systematic and structured manner. Each contributor proffers convincing solutions to clearly identified problems. Well-researched and solution orientated, this book will engage scholars and policy makers who are interested in public policy and development issues in Africa.

This book was released on 2017-07-31 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2013 in the subject Politics - Region: Africa, , language: English, abstract: Through this study, Africa accelerates an African Agenda by embracing the philosophy of African Renaissance which is premised on the renewal and rebirth of Africa. This thesis therefore focuses on a continent aspiring to engage in dialogue and forge a partnership with the rich Global North to implement the millennium developmental plan like NEPAD. The primary lesson from this thesis is that the continent must ensure that it has the full support of 54 states and that continental plans cannot be implemented by a single country whose leadership is contested. Africa’s challenges in implementing the New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD) have to do with fundamentals of the very idea of NEPAD and its dependency underpinning. These challenges include structural, endogenous and exogenous factors which continue to constrain Africa’s endeavours. So the argument is that Africa failed to implement or was initially destined to fail. Deploying the dependency theory, the thesis delves deeper into Africa’s development trajectory to reflect that NEPAD, just like preceding developmental plans such as the Lagos Plan of Action (LPA), was destined to fail as long as there was no clear paradigm shift from the long standing and perpetual asymmetric donor – recipient relationship although NEPAD is espoused as a partnership but it is still steeped within weakened neo – colonial relations that are incommensurate with Africa’s developmental path.
