Professor Raymond Suttner unpacks his column 'Irremediable crisis? Pervading pessimism without remedies in place'.
He writes, "For some years much of South African society has voiced or has appeared to be consumed by hopelessness and demoralisation. There is a sense that what was gained in achieving democracy in 1990-1994 has been gutted by corruption, State Capture, destruction of state enterprises and other key institutions and infrastructure. A range of other ills spread over almost all institutions impact, albeit unevenly, seriously on all sections of society."
