dc.description.abstractReflecting on the career of Rolf Stumpf, who passed during late October 2020 from cancer, reminded me of a meeting I had around 1992 with the famous Hungarian sociologist Ivan Szelenyi, who had started working on his very interesting book Making Capitalism without Capitalists (Verso, 1998). With the South African transition looming, he was interested, from a Hungarian perspective, in what made certain communists successful in the new capitalist Hungary and he wanted to know if I was interested in doing a similar study in South Africa. The transition became far too busy for me to consider another study, but the central theme of Szelenyi’s work was that one of the characteristics of a successful transition was their distinctive technocratic-intellectual elites who were both successful communists and successful capitalists.en_ZA
