This 1991 book examines a largely neglected phenomenon in the field
of international relations - the concept of the isolated state.
Deon Geldenhuys begins by discussing how he measures both voluntary
and enforced international isolation by, among other things,
membership of international organizations, official visits and
international censure. He then presents a number of case studies of
self-isolation. The remainder of the study is devoted to an
analysis of the enforced isolation of Taiwan, Israel, Chile and
South Africa. Using a wealth of statistical material, he
demonstrates their varying degrees of isolation in the diplomatic,
military, economic and socio-cultural arenas of the international
community.
