The IRR Survey, first published in 1948, has become the authoritative guide on socio-economic trends and data in South Africa. Compiled and published annually in collaboration with the IRR’s sister entity, the Centre For Risk Analysis (CRA), the Survey offers an in-depth look at the reality of life in South Africa and the consequences of governance and policy in the areas of demographics, the economy, public finances, employment, industrial relations, business and infrastructure, assets and incomes, education, health, social security, living conditions, communications, crime and security, and politics and government.
