"This provocative book analyzes the origins of inequality in the
apartheid era and their persistence, even intensification, through
a decade of African National Congress rule. Seekings and Nattrass
make a powerful case for critical policy changes on behalf of the
millions of the dispossessed and unemployed who have had only
meager material benefits, if any at all, from a decade of
democratic governance."—Alan Jeeves, Southern African Research
Centre, Kingston, Canada

"This is one of the most important social science studies on South
Africa in recent years. Carefully researched and tightly argued, it
pays every attention to the malign legacies of apartheid. But it
also criticizes post-apartheid policies, demonstrating that while
class has largely replaced race as the determinant of inequality,
income inequalities may in fact have deepened since the end of
white minority rule."—Colin Bundy, Director and Principal, School
of Oriental & African Studies
