Riassunto

This guide describes and analyzes in accessible English the global economic contact in which South Africa operates. Collaboration, trade, the IMF and World Bank, the role of transitional corporations, investment and responses the global economy are all issues that are explored. It provides possible progressive responses to neo-liberal domination. Globalization, the global economy, international competitiveness, neo-liberalism - these are terms which are fashionably used to describe the growing impact of global changes on South Africa's democratic transformation. What does it all mean and how is it affecting the lives of workers and the poor in South Africa and southern Africa? What do these changes mean for labour and how should labour take the lead in challenging global competitiveness and neo-liberalism? This book tries to clarify these new, complex issues that are facing the labour movement. More importantly, it highlights the need to develop alternative, progressive responses to neo-liberal domination.
