More broadly, it radically questioned the socio-political dispensation resulting from the 1994 social pact between big business, the ruling elite and the liberation movement. The 2015 revolt links to national and international youth struggles of the recent past and is informed by black consciousness politics and social movements of the international left. Yet, its objectives are more complex than those of earlier struggles. The student movement has challenged the hierarchical, top-down leadership system of university management and it's 'double speak' of professing to act in workers' and students' interests yet entrenching a regressive system for control and governance. University managements, while on one level amenable to change, have also co-opted students into their ranks to create co-responsibility for the highly bureaucratised university financial aid that stands in the way of their social revolution. This book maps the contours of student discontent a year after the start of the #FeesMustFall revolt. Student voices dissect colonialism, improper compromises by the founders of democratic South Africa, feminism, worker rights and meaningful education. In-depth assessments by prominent scholars reflect on the complexities of student activism, its impact on national and university governance, and offer provocative analyses of the power of the revolt. 606 $aStudent movements$zSouth Africa 606 $aEducational equalization$zSouth Africa 606 $aEducation, Higher$zSouth Africa$xFinance 606 $aUniversities and colleges$zSouth Africa$xFinance 606 $aUniversities and colleges$zSouth Africa$xAdministration 606 $aHigher education and state$zSouth Africa 615 0$aStudent movements 615 0$aEducational equalization 615 0$aEducation, Higher$xFinance. 615 0$aUniversities and colleges$xFinance. 615 0$aUniversities and colleges$xAdministration. 615 0$aHigher education and state 676 $a378.68 702 $aBooysen$b Susan 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910164873003321 996 $aFees must fall$92785729 997 $aUNINA
