This book challenges the conventional understanding of South
Africa's transition to democracy as a home-grown process through a
comparative analysis of Commonwealth and United Nations mediation
attempts. Approaching power transition through the lens of South
Africa, Zwelethu Jolobe raises questions about how methods and
types of mediation are understood, and their appropriateness for
certain stages of negotiation processes. International Mediation in
the South African Transition calls into question the
generalisations about the determinants of success by international
third parties in resolving internal conflicts. It moves from the
position that the success of a mediation effort depends on the
examination of the time horizon of a conflict and on the
contribution the mediation effort plays in improving the
relationship between the belligerents. The book argues that the
international community, particularly the Commonwealth and the
United Nations, played a profound and beneficial role in the
political transition to end apartheid. International Mediation in
the South African Transition will be of interest to students and
scholars of African politics, conflict resolution, international
relations and global governance.
