The Defence of White Power - South African Foreign Policy under Pressure (Hardcover)

As a culmination of a decade's research by a former senior US intelligence analyst on South African affairs, this book examines the role of domestic politics, security concerns and bureaucratic conflict in South Africa. From his perspective as a seasoned observer of southern Africa's politics and regional security, the author presents an incisive analysis of the foreign policy process and shifting strategies under Vorster and P.W.Botha. He shows how domestic race policies pose the dominant constraint on foreign policy and analyzes the successes and failures of Botha's destabilization strategy. Finally he assesses the worsening policy environment facing the white minority leadership in the 1990s and its implications for regional security. The author also wrote "South Africa in Namibia" and "Southern Africa - Regional Security Problems and Prospects".
