What comes next for South Africa as the ANC’s dominance gives way to a more fragmented political landscape?
Roifield Brown welcomes Stephen Grootes to Mid Atlantic to explore South Africa’s changing politics and its place in the world. Stephen hosts The Money Show on 702 and Cape Talk, is an anchor on Newsroom Afrika and an Associate Editor at Daily Maverick. He brings more than twenty years of experience reporting and commenting on South African politics.
The conversation examines the ANC’s declining support, the legacy of its liberation struggle and the competition to shape the country’s future. From Jacob Zuma’s MK party and the Democratic Alliance to the growing importance of smaller parties, can South Africa’s new political landscape deliver greater accountability—and could any party command a majority again?
The discussion also turns abroad, exploring South Africa’s support for Palestinians, its case at the International Court of Justice.
