Conclusion.This book provides an innovative perspective on class dynamics in South Africa, focussing specifically on how economic and trade policy have shaped the interests of two strands of the South African population. As an emerging market, South African political and economic actions are subject to the attention of international trade policy. Claar provides an in-depth class analysis of the contradictory negotiation processes that occurred between South Africa and the European Union on Economic-Partnership Agreements (EPA), examining the divergent roles played by the political and economic elite, and the working class. The author considers their relationships with the new global trade agenda, as well as their differing standpoints on the EPA.International Political Economy Series,2662-2483Political economySocial structureEqualityInternational economicsTradeBusinessCommerceEconomic policyInternational Political Economyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912140Social Structure, Social Inequalityhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22010International Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W33000Tradehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/527010Economic Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34010Political economy.Social structure.Equality.International economics.Trade.Business.Commerce.Economic policy.International Political Economy.Social Structure, Social Inequality.International Economics.Trade.Economic Policy.305.5620968221Claar Simoneauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut892459BOOK9910300508003321International Trade Policy and Class Dynamics in South Africa1993221UNINA
