Poverty, Inequality, and Democracy: South African Disparities
In: Journal of democracy, Band 22, Heft 3, S. 105-119
ISSN: 1086-3214
Abstract: South Africa's 1994 transition to democracy was made possible by the change in the international landscape that resulted from the fall of communism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. South Africa has two important "assets" that will help it to confront the poverty and inequality that beset the country. The first is majority support for democracy: In the 2008 Afrobarometer survey, two-thirds supported democracy, while 12 percent were indifferent, and 19 percent felt that nondemocratic government was sometimes preferable. The second asset is South Africa's relatively low level of corruption. Democratic stability and development are tied to economic growth. Without it, South Africa could be at risk for political and economic disaster.

Analyse der Finanzierungsstruktur der südafrikanischen Stadtverwaltungen und Regional Services Councils. Die Verwaltungen stellen im wesentlichen Dienstleistungen zur Verfügung, deren Erträge etwa 20% ihrer Gesamteinnahmen ausmachen. Zwei Fallstudien befassen sich mit den besonderen Problemen schwarzer Verwaltungen. Trotz weiterer Einnahmequellen und Transfers bleiben insbesondere hier erhebliche Defizite. Diskutiert werden die Folgen der unterschiedlichen Strukturen von Einnahmen und Ausgaben in Abhängigkeit von der meist sehr heterogenen Bevölkerungsstruktur. Große Schwierigkeit, alle Einwohner eines metropolitanen Gebietes in ein angemessenes einheitliches System eingliedern zu müssen. (DÜI-Hlb)
