Praise for Revolution Deferred

“Murray’s history of post-apartheid South Africa provides a strong sequel to his prior speculation on South Africa’s social future, charting new paths of possibilities through subsequent changes in South African society and their political results. This analyzes the relationships between the ANC, the Communist Party and trades unions, evaluating politics, interactions, and far-reaching results.—Midwest Book Review
