- Title
- Work in Progress, Issue no. 54
- Description
- A 37-page issue published under the threat of emergency media restrictions. The editorial critiques Home Affairs Minister Stoffel Botha's "media terrorist" rhetoric and explains the journal's move to thinner paper to maintain its cover price despite inflation. Key features include the 1988 COSATU Congress, the campaign against the Labour Relations Amendment Bill (LRAB), P.W. Botha's "meaningless" reform package, the history of May Day in South Africa, and an investigation into "buccaneering capitalism" in the Beira Corridor.
