'We in South Africa have a war going on. Those who have not realised it are foolish.'

These words of Frank Chikane, general secretary of the South African Council of Churches, refer to the war that is being waged at present in defence of white minority rule and an iniquitous social system.

All-encompassing, it operates at political, economic and ideological levels, affects every area of society, and impinges on the lives of all South Africans. This book has been written by a number of leading young academics, professionals and activists concerned about the increasing tendency%towards escalating militarisation and reliance on state violence in South Africa in the last decade or so. In their various chapters they describe and analyse the militarisation of their society in all its dimensions and manifestations. It is hoped that the book will not only add to an understanding of the destructive forces at play in South Africa, but encourage the reader to work actively against them.
