The road to democracy - International solidarity (Hardcover, illustrated edition)

The third volume in the series examines the role of anti-apartheid movements around the world. The global anti-apartheid movement was very successful in creating awareness of the liberation struggle in South Africa, and in contributing to the downfall of the apartheid government. This volume, in 2 parts, brings together analyses which in the main are written by activist scholars with deep roots in the movements and organizations they are writing about. Themes covered include: the ANC in exile; the ANC's armed struggle; the conduct of the ANC's underground political work; the history of the South African Communist Party; the PAC in exile and its internal underground; the United Democratic Front, the Azanian People's organisation during the 1980s/Black consciousness movement; the role of Women in the struggle; the independent trade union movement; the rise of social movements; the role of religious institutions in the liberation struggle; regional studies of township resistance; resistance and repression in the rural areas and Bantustans; above-ground organizations (including Afrikaner organizations); culture, resistance and representation; protest art; political violence; the ANC and Inkatha; sport and resistance; and the role of the Christian Institute. This volume, like the previous two volumes, makes extensive use of oral testimony on the historical processes, events, organizations and individuals under study.
