Books by Ben Turok

What happened to the 'old' intellectual movement? What happened to the thinkers who inspired and led our struggle? In pursuit of answers to these questions, MISTRA in partnership with the Liliesleaf Trust, hosted a roundtable in March 2015 on the theme 'The Role of Intellectuals in the State-Society Nexus'.

Provides a record of Ben Turok's experience as a participant in the political life of South Africa since 1994. This is also an insightful account of the ANC's decline and current malaise, told by an insider intent on holding his party to its historical mission of liberating South Africa from poverty, inequality, and discrimination.
