Carl Peters Reviews Who Rules South Africa? by Martin Plaut and Paul Holden
Verdict: carrot
Through extensive research and good presentation, authors Martin Plaut and Paul Holden have fashioned something of a political soap opera in the lead-up to the ANC’s important five-year conference coming up in Mangaung in December.
What we see are members of a massive political family (the ANC-led Tripartite Alliance) pulling in different directions, sometimes scandalously and clandestinely, but somehow still trying to keep the old, warm blood that was created during the struggle days running in a body filled with communists, capitalists and centrists, who are all lobbying for power.
