Abstract: This article explores, through the mapping and projection of a range of scenario paths, the future possibilities for opposition party politics in South Africa. The article discusses pre‐election, election and post‐election trends towards potential realignment in opposition politics, as well as trends indicating the affirmation and amplification of pre‐existing tendencies in party politics. The analysis draws on a number of interviews with party political actors, media monitoring and direct observation by the author.

TL;DR: In this article, an interpretation of James Cameron's films, The Terminator and Terminator II - Judgment Day, is presented, where the paradoxical time-structure of the film-narrative is explored in terms of Heidegger's analysis of temporarily with its emphasis on the primacy of the future in relation to the past and the present.
Abstract: This article is an interpretation of James Cameron’s films, The Terminator and Terminator II - Judgment Day . As instances of popular art, they are first situated in the context of Habermas's conviction that art has a specific function in the public sphere, viz. to provide an enlightening experience for people who are normally excluded from the specialized discourse of aesthetics and an criticism. The interpretation of the joint film narrative of Terminator I and II is then articulated in two stages. First, the paradoxical time -structure of the film-narrative is explored in terms of Heidegger’s analysis of temporarily, with its emphasis on the primacy of the future in relation to the past and the present. Secondly, the fact that these film s were made possible by a combination of film art and advanced film technology, is thematized along lines suggested by Heidegger's critique of technology. This leads to the insight, finally , that the Terminator film s exemplify Heidegger’s contention that the threat posed by technology is averted by a liberating force from within itself
