Book Synopsis
A look at the mass forces that swept Jacob Zuma to power in 2009—and put an end to the elite politics of the Thabo Mbeki era—this trenchant and provocative study defines the new configuration of power in South Africa. Illuminating such topics as the new black elite, the role of Julius Malema, the cartoons of Zapiro, and the fortunes of COPE, the discussion stimulates ideas, provokes discussion, creates controversy, and helps to define a new democracy.
