The South African Dream - Reg Lascaris & John Hunt

Condition: Pre-loved 

Who dares, wins. And in this groundbreaking book John Hunt and Reg Lascaris have dared to speculate, and to dream, on South Africa in the future. Is there a dream? What is it? Who does the dream belong to? And do most ordinary South Africans dare to dream it?

The South African Dream proves that the answer is a resounding yes. The spectral nation is alive and kicking and South Africans across the race and class spectrum have dreams of a country that is peaceful, crime-free, globally competitive and prosperous.

To find out what South Africans dream about, the authors commissioned Market Support Associates to conduct research into a cross-section of ordinary South Africans. They also identified the Dream Team - a collection of prominent South Atricans in business and politics - and in in-depth interviews asked them for their views on the South African Dream. This book is an extraordinary distillation of these views and research results, and the authors' own (mostly) optimistic feelings about South Africa.

The South African Dream is no easy ride to peace and prosperity. It's a spin on a roller-coaster that will leave us all reeling. But as the authors prove. things might just not be as bad as they seem.
