Policy, Politics and Poverty in South Africa

By Jeremy Seekings, Kasper, Nicoli Nattrass

Seekings and Nattrass explain why poverty persisted in South Africa after the transition to democracy in 1994. The book examines how public policies both mitigated and reproduced poverty, and explains how and why these policies were adopted. The analysis offers lessons for the study of poverty elsewhere in the world.
