Title: The missing piece
Description: "At the time of South Africa's first democratic election in 1994 it was clear that the structure of the economy had to change and that land ownership, employment opportunities and access to essential services had to match more closely the needs of the entire population. The Missing Piece: Solving South Africa's Economic Puzzle explores various aspects of the South African economy over the past 20 years - what has worked and what has fallen short. It also looks into the next 20 years to see what needs to be done in order to fix the missing piece of South Africa's economic puzzle that will place the country on a higher potential growth path. This involves focusing on business development, implementing reforms in education and skills development, improving the use of technology, addressing our infrastructural backlog and developing a closer relationship with the rest of Africa. The practical policy proposals in The Missing Piece set it apart from other titles on the South African economy, while providing an accessible and comprehensive overview of the pertinent issues."--Back cover.
