die aanvalle wat Saterdag deur Hamas-vegters uit Gasa teen di\u00e9 land geloods is, vererger net die situasie en l\u00ea die grondslag vir m\u00e9\u00e9r geweld wat jare lank kan voortsleep.<\/p><p>S\u00f3 het die politieke ontleder dr. Greg Mills Dinsdagmiddag by die Woordfees gewaarsku. Hy was by die Skrywersfees met die joernalis Peter Bruce in gesprek oor sy nuwe boek, <em>Rich State, Poor State<\/em>. Hierin stel Mills ondersoek in na hoekom sommige state floreer, terwyl ander met soortgelyke uitdagings, misluk.<\/p><p>\u201cVir elke mens wat Israel doodmaak, skep hulle net \u2019n klomp rekrute vir Hamas, Hezbollah en soortgelyke militante groepe \u2013 \u2019n nuwe geslag wat net die stryd gaan voortsit. Hulle maak dieselfde fout as wat Amerika in Afganistan gemaak het deur nie met die Taliban te praat nie,\u201d het Mills ges\u00ea.<\/p><p>Hy het met Bruce saamgestem dat die huidige konflik in die Midde-Ooste en die voortslepende oorlog in Oekra\u00efne, tekenend van \u2019n \u201cnuwe Koue Oorlog\u201d is, wat dit n\u00f3g moeiliker vir Suid-Afrika en die res van ons vasteland gaan maak om op die politieke en ekonomiese herstelpad te kom.<\/p><p>\u201cDie w\u00eareld raak al hoe meer kompleks en gevaarlik, en daar ontstaan \u2019n nuwe polariteit tussen demokratiese regerings en outorit\u00eare regimes. D\u00edt hou ook \u2019n bedreiging vir Afrika in, want ons vasteland is by \u2019n kruispad,\u201d het Mills ges\u00ea.<\/p><p>\u201cEnersyds is ons demografie dramaties aan die verander. Ons bevolking gaan teen 2050 verdubbel \u2013 tot 2,5\u00a0miljard mense. Maar andersyds krimp ons middele \u2013 Afrika se aandeel aan globale inkomste per kapita het die afgelope 60 jaar met die helfte gedaal. As ons ekonomiese groeikoers nie vinnig verbeter nie, word ons deur \u2019n ramp in die gesig gestaar.\u201d<\/p><p>Mills is \u2019n voormalige direkteur van die Suid-Afrikaanse Instituut vir Internasionale Betrekkinge. Hy is sedert 2005 hoof van die Brenthurst-stigting, wat destyds deur die Oppenheimer-familie tot stand gebring is \u201com Afrika se ekonomiese prestasie te verbeter\u201d.<\/p><p>\u201cOns ondersoek al byna 20 jaar goeie en slegte regeringspraktyke in Afrika-lande en vergelykbare kontekste elders \u2013 van Latyns-Amerika en Asi\u00eb tot Europa en die Midde-Ooste. En een ding is duidelik \u2013 die verhouding tussen ekonomiese groei en maatskaplike ontwikkeling. Eersgenoemde is \u2019n voorvereiste vir laasgenoemde,\u201d het hy Dinsdag ges\u00ea.<\/p><p>Sy boek is onder meer op beleidmakers en politieke leiers gemik, \u201com hulle te laat besef dat hulle nie alleen is nie; dat daar voorbeelde is waar leiers \u2019n slegte situasie ge\u00ebrf het, maar \u2019n ommekeer kon bewerkstellig,\u201d het hy verduidelik.<\/p><p>\u201cMaar hulle moet weet hervorming is harde werk, en hulle moet bereid wees om moeilike besluite te neem. Dis hoekom pres. Cyril Ramaphosa so \u2019n teleurstelling is. Hy soek konsensus eerder as om keuses te maak wat hom dalk steun kan laat inboet, maar die regte ding is om te doen.\u201d<\/p><p>Dink hy Suid-Afrika kan reggeruk word?<\/p><p>\u201cEk is \u2019n ewige optimis. Maar ek dink nie die ANC gaan dit kan doen nie. Hy is vasgevang in sy rol as \u2019n bevrydingsbeweging met \u2019n uitgediende ideologie. Ons het politieke hervorming nodig, en die stembus is waar daardie druk uitgeoefen moet word.\u201d<\/p><p>Mills reken nie die ANC gaan die verkiesing volgende jaar verloor nie, maar dink d\u00edt kan juis tot die nodige veranderinge lei.<\/p><p>\u201cOns meningsopnames dui daarop dat die ANC sowat 44% van die stemme gaan trek. En dan is die scenario waarvoor baie regdenkende Suid-Afrikaners hoop dat hulle ontslae raak van hulle \u2018radikale ekonomiese transformasie\u2019-faksie en \u2019n alliansie smee met \u2019n groep opposisiepartye wat ook byna soveel steun trek. So \u2019n \u2018middeweg-koalisie\u2019 kan Suid-Afrika op \u2019n pad van hervorming lei, waarby ons almal sal baat.\u201d<\/p><ul><li><strong>Titel: <\/strong><em>Rich State, Poor State<br
