Rebuilding Hegemony: Passive Revolution, State Transformation, and South Africa's Steel Sector

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This paper draws on Gramscian concepts to analyse the ongoing transformation of the South African state. In particular, it conceptualizes the Jacob Zuma administration&apos;s (2009 - 2018) attempt to establish an east-Asian inspired developmental state as an ongoing passive revolution, undertaken in the hopes of bolstering the ruling blocs&apos; struggling hegemonic project. The paper argues that the implementation of the developmental state framework has transformed the role and character of the state apparatus vis-a-vis economic processes. Drawing on data collected over 9 months of fieldwork, this paper details three major transformations: a shift towards what ostensibly appears as state capitalism, the increased leveraging/privileging of outbound Global South-based capital; and the construction of novel intra-state alliances. The theoretical insights are then grounded via an examination of South Africa&apos;s steel sector. In this manner, the article adds to the literature on South Africa&apos;s post-apartheid political economy and new geographies of South-South engagement.
