Abstract
O artigo analisa os desenvolvimentos recentes na África do Sul após a demissão não voluntária de Jacob Zuma e a eleição de Cyril Ramaphosa para o cargo de Presidente da República. Uma das palavras-chave em seu relatório “Estado da Nação” no dia seguinte à sua eleição foi “Novo amanhecer”: “Deveríamos deixar para trás toda a negatividade que perseguiu nosso país, porque um novo amanhecer está chegando. Devemos deixar para trás todos os aspectos negativos que impediram nosso país, porque há um novo amanhecer acima de nós", disse ele. Portanto, o artigo avalia os passos que o novo presidente tomou para manter sua promessa de "mudar o país" e, em particular, para erradicar a corrupção generalizada. É dada uma atenção especial aos resultados das eleições nacionais e provinciais de maio de 2019 na África do Sul.
