Prof William Gumede laments how the ANC shut down technical and vocational colleges. This is true, the ANC did do that. What Prof Gumede doesn’t say is that the ANC did all of that because of neoliberals like him who wanted a small government and for the markets to lead the economy. How else was the ANC going to implement GEAR and its fiscal discipline policies without cutting public spending somewhere? Decade after decade, the expert analysts insisted the government was broke demanded that it meet the deficit targets required by global financial markets. So the ANC had to streamline the public sector, and closing or merging vocational colleges was an easy way to slash the budget🤷🏾‍♂️ Then there was the part about “the knowledge economy” trend which pushed university education and “white-collar” services. Again, the idea was that the market, not state-run colleges, should dictate skills training. By the time the government realised that a developing economy cannot survive without large numbers of plumbers, teachers, nurses and welders, the infrastructure for training them had already been gutted. Many intellectuals and advisors who now cry wolf about the “skills gap” or the “failure of the state” were the same architects and cheerleaders of the policies that dismantled the state’s capacity to train artisans.
