dc.description.abstractEnglish: Focusing on state structure and behaviour, the ‘good governance’ agenda, political settlement, and the current path, this article describes and elaborates – in a problematic manner – the hurdles we will encounter in simultaneously walking and making the road of state construction that is messy, complex and replete with contradictions. Some implications for planning are outlined related to issues of governance and working with clientelism and patronage as enablers and contributors to growth rather than pathologies to be ‘corrected by administrative reforms’. Whether we can carry through and successfully deliver socially inclusive and empowering developmental programmes and projects hinges on understanding and negotiating social change and transformation.en_ZA
dc.description.abstractAfrikaans: Met ’n fokus op die gedrag van die staat, die ‘goeie regering’ agenda, politieke skikking, en die huidige koers, beskryf hierdie artikel uitvoerig – en op ’n problematise wyse – die hindernisse wat ons sal teëkom terwyl ons meedoen aan die slordige, komplekse en teenstrydigdige proses van tersylfdertyd die pad van staatskonstruksie maak en bewandel. Etlike implikasies vir beplanning en met verwysing tot staatsbestuur, wat saamwerk met klientisme en begunstiging as bemagtigers en meewerkers tot groei, in plaas van ‘n patologie wat reggestel moet word deur adminiatratiewe hervorming, word geskets. Die deurvoer en suksesvolle lewering van sosiaal inklusiewe en bemagtigtende ontwikkelingsprogramme en projekte sal afhang van ons begrip van sosiale verandering en transformasie en hoe ons daarmee handel.af
