Description
Millions of Black South African workers struggled against apartheid to redeem employment and production from a history of abuse, insecurity, and racial despotism. Almost two decades later, however, the prospects of a dignified life of wage-earning work remain unattainable for most South Africans.
Through extensive archival and ethnographic research, Franco Barchiesi documents and interrogates this important dilemma in the country's democratic transition: Economic participation has gained centrality in the government's definition of virtuous citizenship, and yet for most workers, employment remains an elusive and insecure experience. In a context of market liberalization and persistent social and racial inequalities, as jobs in South Africa become increasingly flexible, fragmented, and unprotected, they depart from the promise of work with dignity and citizenship rights that once inspired opposition to apartheid. Barchiesi traces how the employment crisis and the responses of workers to it challenge the state's normative imagination of work, and raise decisive questions for the social foundations and prospects of South Africa's democratic experiment.

slog
It is clear that this author wants all listeners to be certain about his high intellect and advanced education. He never uses 10 words, when 100 will do the same job. The words that he does use are the longest and most obscure possible. Every sentence has so many thoughts and interjections that by the time that they each end, you will have forgotten how they started, and forget about there being a point. if there is one, it is impossible to track.
It is a shame that such an interesting and important topic has been tackled by such babble. It is also a shame that i wasted a credit on it.
