This comprehensive book delves into the multifaceted realm of democratic practice, processes, and governance in South Africa. It provides a holistic perspective and in-depth analysis of the country's governing system, exploring its development and response to the challenges posed by the African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM). While examining the progress made by the South African government in strengthening democracy and political governance, the book's central objective is to assess the implementation of core APRM-related programs and identify areas for further improvement.
The contributions in this book follow a structured format, addressing thematic issues such as the assessment of program implementation, identification of areas of excellence, prognosis for future improvement, identification of weak areas, and strategies for enhancing democracy and political governance.
The APRM, a self-assessment strategy initiated by the African Union (AU) in 2002 and adopted in 2003, serves as a voluntary mechanism for countries on the African continent to enhance governance in general. As a specialized AU agency, APRM monitors the peer review activities of each African country, fostering a platform for sharing experiences, reinforcing best practices, identifying deficiencies, and assessing capacity-building needs. This book will be invaluable to scholars and researchers in political science, public administration, and the social sciences, as well as policy-makers seeking a deeper understanding of democratic practice, processes, governance, public policy, and the broader context of South Africa's development.
