description |
The evolution of South Africa’s
strategic policy directions was analyzed through the
application of natural language processing (NLP) techniques
to the texts of the Reconstruction and Development Plan,
Growth, Employment And Redistribution, the Accelerated and
Shared Growth Initiative South Africa, the New Growth Path,
and the National Development Plan. In statistical,
probabilistic topic modeling analysis, nine topics are
identified across all development plans. In the decreasing
order of proportion of development plans’ documents, the
topics relate to: climate change and resources; green
economy; corruption and security; health; skills and
training; economic growth; fiscal policy and macro-economy;
reconstruction and democracy; and education. The study is a
background note for the South Africa Systematic Country Diagnostic. |
