ABSTRACT
2Growing public impatience with failed government strategies to improve the lives of South Africa’s black majority threatens the survival of the tripartite alliance that has governed the country since the end of apartheid. If the African National Congress-led government proves unwilling or unable to successfully address the issues - land reform and property rights - crucial for solving many other lingering economic ills, the ripple effects of capital flight and economic contraction will be felt throughout sub-Saharan Africa.
