South Africa Since Apartheid by Sean Sheehan
In 1994, for the first time in South Africa's history, the entire population was allowed to vote. The lead up to this momentous event is covered in this book which looks at the apartheid system and how it came to be destroyed. The book then goes on to assess the progress South Africa has made since its first government that represented the interests of the black population was elected, and looks at its social and economic problems. The role of individuals, such as Nelson Mandela, and the impact on individuals is considered throughout, giving the reader an insight into what ordinary South Africans faced and still face today.
'Both authors handily integrate the historical context of their subjects and introduce controversial questions in a way that encourages readers to make their own judgementsThey strike a good balance between overall analyses of social, economic and political trends and the consideration of the individual experiences implied in the series title.' -- Books for Keeps 20021101
