Список книг автора Frans Cronje'n Tydreisigersgids vir Suid-Afrika in 2030
Hoe gaan Suid-Afrika in 2030 lyk? En hoe gaan die volgende vyftien jaar ontvou? Die afgelope paar jaar het Suid-Afrika dramatiese veranderinge ondergaan: Politieke spanning het verhoog, die ekonomie het in die hek geduik en al meer Suid-Afrikaners wend hulle uit frustrasie straat toe. Wat beteken dit vir die land se toekoms? Gaan die vonk in die kruitvat vlamvat? In dié boek ontleed die bekende scenariobeplanner Frans Cronje die jongste tendense en skets vier splinternuwe scenario's vir die land se toekoms. Is Suid-Afrika op pad om 'n meer sosialistiese staat te word waar die regering op individue se grond en rykdom beslag lê? Of gaan die status quo seëvier en die gaping tussen ryk en arm vergroot terwyl misdaad die hoogte inskiet? Gaan ons demokratiese regte en vryhede toenemend verminder? Of gaan 'n reënboog onverwags sy verskyning maak? Cronje se nuwe scenario's is 'n nugter kompas vir Suid-Afrika se hoogs onvoorspelbare toekoms.
A Time Traveller's Guide to South Africa in 2030
What will South Africa look like in 2030? And how will the next fifteen years unfold? South Africa has undergone dramatic change in recent years. Political tensions are on the up, economic performance has weakened, and more and more South Africans are taking their frustrations to the streets. What does this mean for our future? Will a spark ignite the powder keg? In this book, leading scenario planner Frans Cronje analyses the latest trends and presents four brand new scenarios for the country's future. Will South Africa take the socialist route and allow the state to seize all wealth and land? Will the status quo prevail, and the wealth divide widen while crime soars? Do we face a pernicious erosion of our democratic rights and freedoms? Or will a rainbow rise unexpectedly? Cronje's new set of scenarios is a sober compass for South Africa's highly unpredictable future.
A Time Traveller's Guide to Our Next Ten Years
Picture South Africa ten years from now: Are the angry poor rising up and seizing land and businesses? Or has economic reform created jobs and growth? Is an increasingly desperate government clamping down on freedoms? Or do the middle classes still braai in suburban bliss?
South Africa is at a tipping point, and small shifts in political and economic conditions can bring about dramatic changes. Unemployment, slow growth, threats to freedom of speech, and poor education can send the country in any direction.
Leading scenario planner Frans Cronje identifies the key trends that will shape our future. Will South Africa follow the Narrow Road, the Wide Road, the Rocky Road or the Toll Road? His four scenarios for the country are sobering, sometimes shocking, but also hopeful.
