| Summary: | "The Politics of the New South Africa provides a fascinating appraisal of the critical moments in the history and recent development of South Africa. As well as providing detailed coverage of segregation and racial supremacy, black opposition, politics under apartheid and violence and terror, the author includes coverage of more recent events such as the transfer of power in 1994, enfranchisement and political realignment, the post-electoral period of adjustment and socio-economic transition, the findings of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and the 1999 elections." "Written in an engaging and thought-provoking style, The Politics of the New South Africa is a welcome new text for students studying modern South Africa as part of a politics, area studies or development studies degree."--BOOK JACKET. |
