Product Description
Capitalist Crusader: Fighting Poverty Through Economic Growth
Author: Herman Mashaba
Format: Paperback
Herman Mashaba built Black Like Me into a success during the apartheid years, and when Nelson Mandela took office in 1994 he believed the fight for personal and economic freedom had been won. Two decades on, he argues, that assumption no longer holds: freedoms have narrowed and economic controls have tightened.
In Capitalist Crusader he sets out why he can no longer stay quiet about the state of the South African economy, and makes his case for capitalist principles as the route out of poverty. He traces the shifts in his own political allegiances and maps the changes he believes the country must make to break entrenched unemployment, poverty and inequality.
