The findings suggest that policy efforts should target class inequality, especially gender and age related. Among other recommendations, this paper suggests that countries like South Africa should shift focus from interracial inequality to inter-class inequality broadly, which is affecting its economic performance. The aim is to provoke discussion, encourage further investigation, and lay bare for action the critical capacity challenges at the center of Africa’s observed inequality. | | Copyright Holder | ACBF | | Copyright URL | http://www.acbf-pact.org | | ISBN/ISSN | 9781779370549 | | Filesize | 1056524 MB | | File Format | PDF | | [ View / download original document ] |
