The Southern Centre for Inequality Studies in collaboration with the Open Society Foundation completed a study of black economic empowerment policy. The BEE policy has been criticised over the years for mostly enriching the elite and politically connected. The study also looked at identifying pathways to a more inclusive economy by considering how the idea of empowerment might relate to the possibilities for growth and national development in South Africa
