Offers a critical evaluation of the Reagan administration's policy
towards South Africa. The notion of engagement underlies the
history of diplomacy, and as such represents the most important
tool in a foreign policy practitioner's armoury. Today, improved
communications are allowing citizens of democratic nations tosee
the real nature of the states with which their governments engage,
including those with dire records concerning the human rights of
their own citizens. The idea of 'constructive engagement' is
forwarded by governments as a method whereby pressure can be
brought to bear on these countries to improve their record on human
rights, while diplomatic and economic contacts can be maintained.
But does this approach achieve positive outcomes? To-answer this
question, this book offers a critical evaluation of one of the best
known examples of constructive engagement - the Reagan
administration's policy towards South Africa. North America: Ohio U
Press; South Africa: Jacana
