Index

Since the great triumph of South Africa’s democratic transition, there
have been many achievements; but there have also been many
disappointments. Without doubt, the greatest failing has been the lack of
progress in addressing poverty and inequality. The main culprit has, in turn,
been massive and growing unemployment. With an official unemployment
rate of 25%, South Africa is a complete outlier among developed and
developing countries. High unemployment underpins extreme poverty
and inequality and is a major contributor to social dislocation. Unemployed
human resources on this scale also constitute a major drag on growth.
In a country with substantial resources and a government which claims
to be serious about addressing the issue, this lack of progress is not only
troubling but puzzling. Much more rapid growth is clearly essential, but
is it enough? This book argues that growth has to be more employment
intensive. If we optimistically assume an annual growth rate going forward
of, say, 4%, it will make a big difference whether employment grows at
1%, 2% or 3%. A key message of the book is that specific attention must
be paid to raising the employment intensity of growth.
The volume brings together 25 leading economists and other social
scientists from South Africa and abroad. They present a penetrating
analysis of the unemployment problem, as well as proposals to deal
with it. Their contributions provide an overview of employment issues,
internationally and domestically, and address the impact of the structure
of the economy on unemployment. Particular attention is paid to rural
communities and the manufacturing sector, as well as to specific policies
such as wage subsidies and public-employment programmes.
