Why did whites in South Africa come to support the dismantling of the apartheid system that .

Why did whites in South Africa come to support the dismantling of the apartheid system that gave them a monopoly of political power? We use a reformulated version of symbolic politics to address this puzzle, showing that white attitudes toward political change were primarily driven by symbolic predispositions regarding race, ideology, party, and specific leaders, as well as various sorts of threat perceptions.

Declares John Kane Berman in his book Political Violence in South Africa : The investment in terror pays off because people learn to behave in ways expected of them. This tactic harks back to the Soviet KGB and the Gulags. These campaigns rendered black areas ungovernable and were strategies created by the UDF at its formation in 1983. In 1990 (after Mandela’s release) the campaigns were stepped up.

John Kane-Berman says both Patrick Gaspard and Cyril Ramaphosa wax eloquent .

John Kane-Berman says both Patrick Gaspard and Cyril Ramaphosa wax eloquent about land reform without ever actually saying the words land expropriation without compensation. While Kane-Berman himself doesn’t mention that both Ramaphosa and his top lieutenants have said commercially productive agricultural land won’t be touched, his pivotal point perhaps is that the ruling party wants to amend the constitution so it can legally seize land. Forget Ramaphosa’s historic big stick and carrot approach.

John Kane-Berman is uniquely qualified to look back over the enormous political and social changes that have taken place in his lifetime in this fractious country. Kane-Berman’s willingness to confront received wisdom is thoroughly refreshing, and he is forthright about the threats to freedom, democracy, and growth in contemporary South Africa, many of which he identified even before the ANC came to power. He is equally forthright in putting forward liberal ideas to halt the country’s downward slide.
