摘要
This article claims that post-apartheid South Africa is in the midst of processes ofreconstruction. W. E. B. Du Bois' seminal text,Black reconstruction, argues that the process is untidy. It creates splinters, overlapping and reconstructing how self-determination and social change are envisioned among Black people, especially the working class. The contradictions which often emerge from the discourse and actions of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) should thus be understood within this milieu. The EFF remains caught within the limits of the era ofreconstruction, and will therefore not emancipate Black people from oppression.
