英文文献摘要:
The end of apartheid in 1994 ushered in a new era in South Africa and with it came the challenge of building a democratic, inclusive and stable society. The government led by the African National Congress initially followed a neoliberal stance to manage the economy and a redistributive strategy to close the income disparity with a streak of a developmental state. These two tracks were at times at odds with each other. The last decade has shown widening inequality and slow progress in addressing poverty, deprivations and other dimensions of wellbeing. Economic growth resulted in huge regional disparities and left a large middle-class vulnerable to uncertainties. In response, the government adopted an ambitious strategy called the New Growth Path that combined the goal of strong economic growth, job creation and broad economic opportunity in one coherent framework. This effort towards greater inclusion is not without challenges.
1994年种族隔离的结束在南非开创了一个新的时代,随之而来的是建立一个民主、包容和稳定的社会的挑战。由非洲人国民大会(African National Congress)领导的政府,最初采取新自由主义立场来管理经济,并采取再分配战略,以缩小收入差距,形成一个发展型国家。这两条轨道有时会相互矛盾。过去十年,不平等现象不断扩大,在解决贫困、贫困和其他福祉方面进展缓慢。经济增长导致了巨大的地区差异,并使大量中产阶级容易受到不确定性的影响。为此,政府采取了一项名为“新增长路径”(New Growth Path)的雄心勃勃的战略,将强劲的经济增长、创造就业和广泛的经济机会的目标结合在一个连贯的框架内。这一争取更大包容性的努力并非没有挑战。
