South Carolina's metal recycling industry is strong, with the second highest number of steel mills in the Southeast. The state's three mills include two at the Nucor Corporation, located in Darlington & Berkeley Counties and one at CMC Steel in Lexington County. More than 11 million tons of iron and scrap steel are produced each year and 70% of this is recycled.

Two articles on local elections in South Africa except the province of KwaZulu Natal (KZN) and social and political conditions in KZN. In the first article H. Marais discusses the local elections in different provinces; how the ANC has become the strongest party in most of the major towns and many smaller rural communities; slow progress in the RDP (Reconstruction and Development Programme) and the ANC's lack of capacity to extend its political power into administrative and management zones. D. Pottie writes about crime and punishment in KZN, the role of the traditional leaders etc. (DÜI-Sen)
This work investigates how Afro-migrants are represented within a Brazilian and a South African tabloid in terms of race and ethnicity. It also employs scorpus linguistics and critical discourse analysis to analyse verbal language. Results suggest that the two newspapers represent black migrants in the light of criminality, either as victims or perpetrators. They often place migrants as beneficiaries of charity, especially in the Brazilian case, and more as perpetrators in the South African case. Passivization of migrants is noticeable in both tabloids; however, the Brazilian outlet resorts mostly to reported speech and editing of the migrants' voices while the South African offers them either freer speech or silencing. Ultimately, Afro-Latin philosophical principles such as self-determination and empathetic zeal are often times neglected across many depictions.

SummaryHow did Brazilian bureaucrats view President Lula's approach to the provision of development assistance in the context of South–South cooperation (SSC)? How did they see their own bureaucracy's role, as a provider of such assistance? This paper addresses these questions within the broad context of Brazil's development assistance program. The analysis begins with an elaboration of the internal legal and political structure supporting the country's provision of development assistance. Then, it addresses the research questions by drawing on original material obtained from 54 interviews, conducted in Brasilia, with diplomats and public servants from 25 federal ministries and institutions directly involved with implementing technical cooperation agreements. Evidence leads to three main observations: (a) the bureaucracies' limited autonomy vis‐à‐vis the Presidency's command of the Brazilian development assistance program; (b) great convergence in the worldviews and principled values upheld by public servants and diplomats in regard to Brazilian foreign policy; and (c) the existence of interbureaucracy complaints and struggles related to the operational side of agreement implementation. These findings are relevant for understanding the inner workings of Brazilian SSC, as well as in comparison to other national bureaucracies' involvement in the conceptualization and implementation of South–South knowledge transfers.
