The new democratic South Africa is making fundamental choices. Will it address the needs of the majority? Will its relations with neighbouring states be restructured equitably? Will South Africa stand up for its own interests and those of Africa? Or will the new leadership become distanced from its popular roots and pushed into further marginalising and impoverishing its people and continent? Setting these questions in a broad continental context of political economy and the legacy of apartheid, this book explores the dimensions of South Africa's present and future relations with the rest of Africa
