Anastatiese- en transendentale ontleding van administratiewe transformasie binne die raamwerk van Masakhane

[摘要] English: In a changing world transformation is from the earliest centuries, familiar to mankind.Therefore the argument is valid that the meaning did not require further explanation.Although it might be the case, a dilemma is that people oft en experienced uncertaintyregarding the meaning of transformation and intention of role players, when they refer tothe concept. People have different viewpoints, opinions and perceptions oftransformation. Therefore the purpose is to bring transformation into perspective.It is argued that the concept should be categorised in different types of transformation.This is necessary in order to differentiate the meaning and to increase the possibilities forimplementation purposes in practice. The value of this approach is that resistance tochange is not necessarily a matter of principal, but it is restricted to 'n specific type oftransformation. Role players must bear in mind that the various types of transformationare often inter-related. Therefore a rigid approach is not recommended.There is a relation between perceptions of transformation, meanings and viewpoints. Thisis because viewpoints are for instance, often based on perceptions. Perceptions are notnecessarily a true reflection of reality, because it is based on selective observation, whatpeople want to observe. Some individuals base their decisions on perceptions. Thereforeit is necessary to determine the meaning of perceptions and their impact ontransformation.An anastatic approach can be utilised for the renewal of transformation in the minds ofrole players. The meaning of anastatic (anastasis) is explained, including why an idealstate of affairs is regarded as static. The changing relations of public institutions and thecommunity in relation to the ideal state are explained. Phases of transformation are alsoexplained within the framework of an anastatic approach. This approach is based onspecific elements. An anastatic approach indicated that a transformation process can become vague in themindsets of role players. This process can be renewed in the mindsets by means of thisapproach.Renewal can be conducted by focussing for instance on the necessity, reasons, extent,sense, meaning and purpose of a specific content of transformation. In this regard atranscendental approach also focuses on the renewal of transformation in the mindsets ofpeople. By means of this approach it is explained why barriers in mindsets can contributetowards the fact that the necessity of transformation is not understood. It is explained bymeans of a transcendental approach why minority aspects in an institution can contributetowards majority problems that exceed organisational boundaries. Different solutions areindicated to overcome these barriers.An anastatic and transcendental approach can be utilised in interaction within theframework of Masakhane. The meaning of Masakhane is explained as well as in thecontext of the Masakhane Campaign. This campaign serves as background why thisconcept became prominent since the campaign was launched during 1995. Bothapproaches indicate that four elements or categories can be relayed from the meaning ofMasakhane. With these elements, it can be specified why this concept can be viewed as anecessity for the realisation of transformation.The relation of Masakhane and related concepts such as Ubuntu and Batho-Pele are alsoexplained. Both approaches can be based on the foundations of public management. Thisfoundation serves as an alternative approach on which Masakhane can be based for therealisation of transformation.In this Thesis, key concepts are viewpoints/perceptions, anastatic/anastasis,transcendental, transformation, change, renewal, mindsets, barriers, co-operation,Masakhane, Ubuntu and Batho-Pele.
