Opis

This book presents discourse by the international policy-makers, diplomats, and speakers who seek a solution to the social and political unrest that continues to plague southern Africa. Many of the papers included were first presented at the conference entitled Toward Peace and Security in Southern Africa, held at Haverford College on April 28-30, 1989. Topics addressed include the causes and structure of the present conflict, prospects for demilitarization and majority rule, models of constructive change, the impact of international and regional pressures, and the role of American foreign policy. The contributors agree that steps toward democracy must be taken to ease the tension of the area, and many of the authors are convinced that foreign influence is imperative in urging the South African government into negotiations.
