Abstract
This article will illustrate the argument by reference to the Eastern Cape, the province which has re-incorporated the formerly 'independent" homelands of Transkei and Ciskei. It will be suggested that "cooperative governance" is being conducted largely upon the state's terms and that - as under apartheid - the autonomy of the chieftaincy is being eroded by ANC rule.-
