After the Party: a personal and political journey inside the ANC Andrew Feinstein. - Johannesburg : Jonathan Ball, 2007. - xiv, 287 pages colour illustrations: 24 cm
Includes bibliographical references (pages 279-208) and index.
Summary: Andrew Feinstein became an active and ardent member of the ANC in the 1980s, and campaigned energetically for the party in the first democratic elections. He was elected to parliament and rose swiftly through the ranks, earning the label 'Mr Clean' for his unstinting work against graft and corruption. But his feelings of euphoria at being part of the new South Africa slowly soured. Initially disappointed by the constant jockeying for power and the denialist AIDS policy of President Thabo Mbeki, Feinstein's disillusionment grew as he sought unsuccessfully to investigate the corruption surrounding the Arms Deal. Isolated from his former comrades, Feinstein was forced to choose between his principles and the party he had so admired. This is his story.
