The report links vulnerability to resilience needs, covering climate and social, fiscal, external, and financial sustainability, alongside pathways to jobs, growth, and competitiveness. It also examines employability and contestability of markets, state-building for an inclusive transition, and the World Bank Group’s priority view to reduce poverty and strengthen shared prosperity.","Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized  \nAN  \nINCOMPLETE TRANSITION  \nOVERCOMING THE LEGACY OF EXCLUSION IN  \nSOUTH AFRICA  \nAN INCOMPLETE TRANSITION  \nOVERCOMING THE LEGACY OF EXCLUSION IN SOUTH AFRICA  \nAN INCOMPLETE TRANSITION  \nOVERCOMING THE LEGACY OF EXCLUSION IN SOUTH AFRICA  \nSOUTH AFRICA SYSTEMATIC COUNTRY DIAGNOSTIC  \nby  \nAn incomplete transition: Overcoming the legacy of exclusion in South Africa South Africa Systematic Country Diagnostic by the World Bank Group  \nCopyright © 2018 by The World Bank Group First published 2018 by UCT Press an imprint of Juta and Company (Pty) Ltd First Floor, Sunclare Building  \n21 Dreyer Street Claremont 7708  \nPO Box 14373, Lansdowne, 7779, Cape Town, South Africa [www.uctpress.co.za](www.uctpress.co.za)  \n© 2018 The World Bank Group 1818 H Street NW Washington DC 20433 Telephone: 202-473-1000  \n[Internet: www.worldbank.org](Internet: www.worldbank.org)  \nThis volume is a product of the staff of the World Bank Group.
