Dominance and Decline: The ANC in the Time of Zuma By Susan Booysen
The dominance theory book
Dominance and Decline takes stock of the Zuma led administration and its impact on the African national Congress AnC Combining hard hitting arguments with astute analysis Booysen shows how the ANC has become centered on the personage of Zuma and how defense of his flawed leadership undermines the party s capacity to govern competently and protect its long term future Following on from her first book The African National Congress and the Regeneration of Power 2011 Booysen s principle argument is that the state is failing as the president s interests supersede those of party and state Organisationally the ANC has become a hegemon riven by faction while the Zuma ANC oversees the implosion of the tripartite alliance and decimation of the youth women s and veterans leagues Electorally the ANC has been ceding ground to increasingly assertive opposition parties The ANC falters on the policy front as it regurgitates old ideas and renews and implements these insufficiently As Zuma s replacements start competing and succession politics take shape the book considers whether the ANC will be able to recover from the damage wrought under Zuma s reign Ultimately Booysen asserts the damage is irrevocable though the electorate may still reward the ANC for transcending the Zuma years This is a must have reference book on the development of the modern ANC With rigour and incisive ness Booysen persuasively analyses the cataclysmic period under Zuma and offers scholars and researchers a coherent framework for considering future patterns in the ANC Dominance and Decline The ANC in the Time of ZumaThis book offers a forensic analysis of the state of the ANC as both a party and a party in government It s offers some interesting insights and analysis of the state of South African politics and should be read by any scholar of South African politics In particular what I liked about the book is the way that Booysen is critical of the ANC but remains balanced in her assessment of the ANC Dominance and Decline The ANC in the Time of Zuma
