Describing the fate of South Africa's drive, which began in 1949,
to associate itself with Britain, France, Portugal and Belgium in
an African defence pact, this book describes how South Africa had
to settle for an entente rather than an alliance, and how even this
had been greatly emasculated by 1960. In light of this case, the
book considers the argument that ententes have the advantages of
alliances without their disadvantages and concludes that this is
exaggerated. There is also discussion of the background to the
"fourth" secret Simonstown Agreement. Other books by the author
include "The Politics of the South Africa Run: European Shipping
and Pretoria", "Return to the UN" and "International Politics".
