This is Steven Friedman at his best, combining a passionate plea for democratic change with considered analysis and judgement. By democratic change Friedman means going beyond electoral choice... This is hardly simple but it is an undertaking that needs to be done. Stephen Chan, Professor of World Politics, School of Oriental African Studies, University of London Intellectually superb! Friedman exposes the ideological zealotry of mainstream democratic transition theorists, exposing both their philosophical weaknesses and political hypocrisy. — Adam Habib, Vice-Chancellor and Principal of the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg A lucid and engaging account with valuable insights into how democracies threatened by inequality, poverty and populism can be strengthened through the power of collective action. — Ayesha Omar, Department of Political Studies, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg ‘What are democracies meant to do? And how does one know when one is a democratic state?’ These incisive questions and more underlie this robust enquiry into what democracy means for South Africa post 1994. Power in Action persuasively argues that democracies can only work when every adult has an equal say in the public decisions that affect them. Democracy is achieved not by adopting idealised models derived from other societies, especially from the global North, but rather, It is the product of collective action. Citizens’ rights to be heard should not only be through public protest action but also through the conscious exercise of influence on public and private power
holders. In this way, more citizens can claim a say over more decisions in society. This is an essential read for all those interested in the future of democracy in Africa as well as the world. Steven Friedman is Research Professor attached to the Department of Politics in the Humanities Faculty, University of Johannesburg. He is a political scientist who specialises in the study of democracy; a public commentator; newspaper columnist and a former trade unionist. 9781776143023
