Power, institutions, and incentives with Dr Levy Ndou
·17 min
Dr. Livindo from Twana University of Technology conducts a political science masterclass on South African democracy. Rather than discussing personalities, he analyzes power, institutions, and incentives. With the ANC losing its majority for the first time and heading toward 2026 local elections, the discussion examines why liberation movements change, whether historical narratives still mobilize voters, and why service delivery (water, electricity, roads) determines electoral outcomes. The episode presents governance as an analytical challenge requiring reflection rather than nostalgia.
