Every state is a despotism, be the despot one or many
Max Stirner

By interrogating political party manifestos for the 24 elections in South Africa Blindspot discovers, unanticipatedly, that most of them agree on MORE State, MORE regulation, MORE control, MORE serfdom, MORE state failure

State as constant, and contested territory. Much may have changed constitutionally, socially, culturally, economically since the turn to a democratic system in 1994, but, one historical constant remains: the state.
