Foreword

State of the Nation: South Africa 2004–2005 is the second issue of what, last

year, the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC) announced would

become an annual set of original essays dedicated to reviewing developments

in South Africa. Recalling the format of the South African Review that was

edited by Glenn Moss and others in the 1980s, and drawing inspiration from

the presidential ‘State of the Nation’ speeches which have become a feature of

our new democracy, these annual collections seek to provide empirically￾based analysis and assessment of contemporary events and trends from a

developmental perspective, reflecting the values that are embedded in the

Constitution.

The founding State of the Nation collection attracted widespread interest. It

was commended for the quality and coverage of the contributions and the

vigorous argument that they occasioned. The current volume constitutes a

worthy successor, and is sure to have a similar effect. It is a project of the

Democracy and Governance Research Programme of the HSRC. But it draws

upon original and stimulating work also undertaken elsewhere within the

organisation and, in addition, features contributions by a spread of analysts

from universities and civil society. As such, it powerfully illustrates both the

breadth of the expanded HSRC’s own capabilities and its commitment to

undertaking such work in active collaboration with publicly and privately

funded research partners.

The importance of the annual State of the Nation volumes in promoting pub￾lic debate in South Africa has been recognised by five donor organisations.

Atlantic Philanthropy, the Ford Foundation and the Mott Foundation have

generously provided funding for the project over three years. Without their

assistance, the production of the book would not have been possible. The

Konrad Adenauer Foundation and the Durban-based Democracy Develop￾ment Programme helped to ensure that the first volume entered the main￾stream of national policy discourse by providing funding for a series of three

launch workshops. They have generously agreed to repeat the exercise for

the present collection. Without the extensive supplementation of its parlia￾mentary grant by partners such as these, the HSRC would be far less able to

discharge its statutory mandate of undertaking social-scientific research of

relevance to public policy, public knowledge and public debate.

The HSRC’s mandate is a distinctively challenging one. Any scientific research

that is interesting and profound will engender controversy, in itself and its

applications. But this is notably true of social research, which deals with

politics, the economy, and society, both locally and internationally. It thus

covers matters which participants engaged in their respective institutions –

such as politicians, managers and employees, activists, and diplomats – as well

as thoughtful citizens engaged in their everyday lives, may wish to apply in

their decision-making. These participants and citizens are thus as intensely

concerned to assess the research as the analysts who produce it. The special

contribution, and obligation, of the latter is to provide considered analyses

that are based on empirical evidence and the scholarly insights of their

disciplines.

In this regard the editors of this second volume of State of the Nation – John

Daniel, Roger Southall and Jessica Lutchman – and all its contributors,

beyond and within the HSRC, continue to serve us well. They are to be

thanked for providing a wide-ranging work of intellectual substance that will

help to advance democracy and development in our country and on our

continent by provoking relevant reflection and lively discussion.
