Abstract
This paper describes the South African experience with economic growth, employment creation and inequality since 1994. From an analysis of both household and firm-level surveys on inequality and unemployment, the paper attempts to provide possible answers to the most frequently asked questions on a global level concerning the relation between inequality and economic openness. The answers that emanate from this paper support labour market reform, social security and socio-economic rights as instruments to achieve more equitable outcomes in a rapidly globalising world economy.
