Podcast: Die ekonomie minuut
Episode: A last (economic) word before the election
Description: Much has been said about tomorrow's election. Our
problems are economic in nature and how the various parties promise to solve them lies on a spectrum from the developmental state to the free market. This struggle is as old as our democracy and to put it in perspective it is worth reading an old research article by Nicoli Nattrass. The title is Gambling on investment: Competing economic strategies in South Africa. It is about the battle of ideas between the then GEAR policy and the ideas of Nedlac's labour caucus.
