| Sumario: | The coronavirus crisis has sent South Africa into an economic slide. To the extent that one can assess these things in such a rapidly changing conjuncture, in this case study, I discuss how this crisis may likely be the proximate trigger for longer-term reconfigurations over the control of South Africas commanding heights of the political economy. I briefly overview the social fallout of coronavirus on the country, then transition to the various struggles already underway between the state, capital, and labour to define the agenda for post-crisis reform. The resolution of these struggles will shape prospects for equitable and inclusive development. |
