Part 1:
Briefly describe the making of the modern state of South Africa. Then summarize the structure of the government, including both the state and the legislature. What aspects of the economy and society are significant influences on the politics of the state? What does the future look like for South Africa. (Note: we have all read the chapter, so keep this part of the forum brief. Focus on what you think is most important for your analysis)
Part 2:
What do you see as positive and negative aspects of the system of government of South Africa. Why do you feel this way and what are you comparing it to? Is there anything that you think should be implemented by governments of other countries or aspects that others should be cautioned away from? (Note: This is the most substantive part of the forum assignment. Critically analyze the information from this weeks reading.)
