| Abstract: | First in a series by leading South African intellectuals on the state of post-apartheid South Africa. It is modelled on the South African Review, edited by Glenn Moss and others during the 1980s and 1990s, which appeared seven times and provided a thematic examination of the then state of South African politics, economics, labour, society, foreign affairs and so on. The second source of inspiration is the annual 'State of the Nation' address to parliament in which the government presents its own perspective on South Africa's present status, and reviews achievements and problems encountered over the last year.
