This dissertation argues that the persistence of certain aspects of neoliberal market orthodoxy, such as capital account and trade liberalization, fiscal austerity and the inflation targeting (IT) regime, over a twenty-year period in post-apartheid South Africa can be attributed to series of economic incentives and constraints that accompanied the country's integration into global capital markets in 1995. Specifically, it is posited that capital account liberalization, as well as a new accumulation regime adopted by the South African conglomerates predicated on financialization and outward expansion, has rendered the business community and the political elite dependent on portfolio capital inflows to fund the fiscal deficit and the balance of payments. This development has enabled global credit rating agencies and international investors to wield a potential veto over potential unorthodox economic policies. Global financial integration has thus compelled the Treasury and Reserve Bank to craft orthodox economic policies in line with interests of global asset managers and domestic corporations. Moreover, the ANC's cash transfer programs to impoverished South Africans, which have been a crucial factor in the party's electoral success, are partially funded through the international capital markets. Finally, organized labor's integration into a corporatist governing arrangement has served to dampen the resistance to this neoliberal regime.
