About this ebook
Confrontation and Accommodation in Southern Africa: The Limits of Independence examines the complex regional dynamics, racial tensions, and political maneuverings within southern Africa during a period of profound social and political upheaval. The book delves into the interplay of economic, political, racial, and military variables, offering a comprehensive study of regional international relations. It highlights the interactions among states and non-state actors in a system fraught with conflict, exploring themes such as race's role in policy, the ideological divides between black- and white-governed territories, and the profound effects of guerrilla warfare and politico-military confrontations. With a focus on intra-regional patterns, the book sheds light on the connections between southern Africa's sub-system and the broader global context.
Authoritative and extensively researched, this work contextualizes the relationships among territories from Angola and South Africa to Tanzania and Madagascar. Through its multidimensional approach, the book provides valuable insights into the evolving diplomatic, economic, and social networks in the region. It also critiques the power structures perpetuated by white-dominated regimes and the counter-efforts of liberation movements. Confrontation and Accommodation in Southern Africa is a vital resource for understanding the historical and ongoing complexities of this pivotal region, making it indispensable for scholars and policymakers alike.
