Abstract
In 1994, South Africa started a new life as a democratic nation. It
faced immense challenges. Multiple economic, social and political
transformations were needed to overcome the legacy of colonialism and
apartheid. The racially-driven history of the prosperous South African
economy had marginalised the black majority from access to resources and
productive opportunities, and deprived most of them of the right to
build secure homes and livelihoods in the urban areas where the nation s
wealth was concentrated.
