Chilenga, Thokozani Jean Thesis (M.A.) University of the Witwatersrand, Faculty of Human Sciences (Political Studies), 2015 The National Development Plan (NDP) was introduced before Parliament in 2012. The NDP describes itself as a plan for a democratic developmental state. Therefore this research will discuss the concepts of a developmental state and its corollary, the democratic developmental state, whilst trying to ascertain whether the NDP is a prudent and achievable plan for such a state. The main research problems that arise are around the formulation of the plan. The research finds that although the NDP is a prudent plan, there will be issues with its achievability if the issues raised are not dealt with. This is because development is primarily a political process which requires political forces to drive development. 2015-11-27T09:02:19Z 2015-11-27T09:02:19Z 2015 Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10539/18843 en application/pdf
