Book excerpt: Puzzled by the difference between 'Mbaweezy', 'Sha Sha', 'the Minister of Broken Promises' and 'uBaba kaDuduzane'? Confused about how McKinsey, Trillian and a bunch of corrupt individuals at Eskom fleeced the utility? Don't know your Nhlapo Commission from your Moerane Commission? With more than 300 entries highlighting the power brokers and stars as well as those who are on their way down or captured, this valuable quick research tool is for anyone interested in where South Africa is at - and why. What are the links between the Auditor-General and the Asset Forfeiture Unit? Why does Black Twitter and its political influencers matter? Who are the diehard reds, and who switched from communism to capitalism? South Africa is the only African country that is a member of the G20, but which bright minds represent it there and in other international arenas? The country is highly ranked in platinum, palladium and gold output, but which are the trade unions and who are the revolutionary leaders fighting on behalf of workers? You'll find those answers here too. The sixth edition of Jacana's popular guide has all the information you need to navigate your way through our complex political scene. With entries covering important terms, events, policies, groups and individuals, The A-Z of South African Politics is an excellent source of current and historical data.
