{"product_id":"9781770108479","title":"The Whistleblowers","description":"\u003cp\u003eWith corruption and fraud endemic in democratic South Africa, whistleblowers have provided an invaluable service to society through disclosures about coverups, malfeasance and wrongdoing. Their courageous acts have resulted in the recovery of millions of rands to the fiscus and to their fellow citizens as well as in improved transparency and accountability.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut in most cases, the outcomes for the whistleblowers themselves are devastating. Some have been gunned down in orchestrated assassinations, others have been threatened and targeted in sinister dirty-tricks campaigns. Many are hounded out of their jobs, ostracised and victimised. They are pushed to the fringes of society.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese are the evocative accounts of South Africa’s whistleblowers, told in their own voices, from across the country. The Whistleblowers also advocates for a change in legislation, organisational support and social attitudes in order to embolden others to have the courage to step up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Mandy+Wiener\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eMandy Wiener\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mandy Wiener","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47378315018403,"sku":"9781770108479","price":270.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9781770108479_7e284cc3-7ae2-4e9e-9194-bd384caef411.jpg?v=1776572138","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9781770108479","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
