Abstract

The objective of this chapter is to show the interplay of ideas and experiences that have shaped South Africa’s development path in the pre- and post-apartheid era. It opens with an overview of the change in the development paradigm from the days of apartheid to democratic South Africa. It then focuses on the neo-liberal shortfalls and South Africa’s challenges in achieving high and inclusive growth, and concludes with a review of the concept of growth inclusiveness for the future of South Africa’s social democracy.
