Join Jonathan Ball Publishers and Exclusive Books for a Homebru Cocktail Evening in honour of How To Fix (Unf*ck) A Country: 6 Things To Reboot South Africa by Roy Havemann.

Havemann will be in conversation with Hilary Joffe at the launch.

‘Roy has written a thought-provoking book, making economics accessible and fun as he deploys his six “E”s to find ways out of South Africa’s stagnation.’ – Hilary Joffe, Business Day

Havemann lays out how we can practically bring in lessons from other countries and learn from their achievements and mistakes, for example, how China, Greece and Colombia solved loadshedding, how different South American countries are dealing with inequality and how Brazil and Kenya are upgrading their education systems.

He shows that we are slowly moving in the right direction. Our own ‘Operation Vulindlela’ delivery unit, which is a joint initiative of the Presidency and the Treasury, is implementing change where it’s needed but more can be done to accelerate reforms to make South Africa a success.

Sometimes the solutions to our problems are right here in our very own country – all that is needed is for us to recognise and harness them.
