THIS IS THE TOPIC:
“For the economy to grow and for jobs to be created, it is essential that there is a substantial increase in domestic demand. This means that South African companies, government and consumers must buy local,” said President Cyril Ramaphosa.1
In the 2011/2012 financial year, the South African government introduced preferential procurement rules through the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), where the domestic content of manufactured goods purchased by the government should meet at least some minimum benchmark. Nicknamed “Proudly South African” by the media, the policy aims to promote economic strength and an improved standing in global markets.
Using the AA-DD framework, critically analyse and diagrammatically show if this government spending constrained policy has a bigger effect on South African output than unconstrained South African government spending? Critically analyse the potential impact on domestic output and exchange rates if this policy is extended to all government spending? How do the theoretical predictions line up with reality?
