On March 21, 1990, Sam Nujoma was sworn in as the first president
of independent Namibia. This ceremony marked the end of a struggle
that lasted more than two decades and a period of colonialism that
lasted more than a century. Finally, after decades long wars over
grazing in the 19th century, genocidal colonial suppression by
Germany at the beginning of the 20th century, repressive apartheid
racialism throughout the 20th century, and a prolonged armed
liberation struggle, Namibians had the chance to choose their own
leaders, develop a democratic political process in a free society,
and to bring economic development and greater equity to their
country. The Historical Dictionary of Namibia covers the history of
Namibia through a chronology, an introductory essay, appendixes,
and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has several
hundred cross-referenced entries on important personalities,
politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This
book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and
anyone wanting to know more about Namibia.
