Missing is the story of Robert Khalipa, an ANC cadre living in exile, who is very senior in the organisation but is left out of the negotiations and almost forgotten in Sweden. Robert has a wealthy Swedish wife, Anna, and they have a daughter who is a practising doctor in a hospital in Stockholm. There is also Robert's protégé Peter Tshabalala, junior in the organisation, yet he gets the call to return to South African to join the democratic government. What follows is a story of conspiracies, lies, back stabbing and disappointments. Robert and his family are faced with the challenges of a South Africa that has changed radically from the one he remembers from more than thirty years ago. The government, in his opinion, does not seem to uphold the principles enshrined in the Freedom Charter. There is also conflict within his own family. Robert wants to stay in South Africa, while his wife and daughter want to go back to Sweden. Their love is tested to breaking point and difficult decisions have to be made by every individual. As with Kani's very successful and often-performed previous play, Nothing but the Truth, the ambiguities of freedom and of personal commitment are explored in this play.

"Essays on the evolution of the post-apartheid state: Legacies, reforms and prospects is a compilation of research papers which are meant to generate strategic reflection beyond issues to do with the day-to-day chores of governance. The views across the essays may not be entirely consistent ; and the issues they raise may be contentious. This merely affirms the truism that the state is a contested terrain. The aim is to deepen the search for an understanding of the theory of the state as it applies to a transforming society such as ours, and to trudge the dividing line between theory and practice so they can feed into each other in a progressive spiral towards the desired ' end-state'. This book forms part of MISTRA's core research projects that were initiated at its founding some three years ago. Arising from, and in addition to, these projects, other themes will be pursued, as part the tortuous climb towards the summit of useful and usable knowledge." -- MISTRA's website: http://www.mistra.org.za/Library/Publications/Pages/Essays-on-the-Evolution-of-the-Post-Apartheid-State-.aspx
