The Public Affairs Research Institute (PARI), working in partnership with a broader civil society has announced that it will be hosting a major conference on reconstructing public institutions in South Africa in the aftermath of state capture.
PARI’s Executive Director, Ivor Chipkin, joined Karima Brown on her show to discuss this and how South Africa can go about developing an agenda for state reform.
“The state capture revealed huge vulnerabilities in the way government works, that in fact state capture was possible precisely because a whole range of systems and processes were not simply being violated but they facilitated this kind of capture.”
