Beschreibung

The Fall of Apartheid tells the extraordinary story of how apartheid came into being, secured its ascendancy over the richest and most developed society in Sub-Saharan Africa, and then collapsed. For the first time it reveals the full story of the secret meetings between Africans and Afrikaners in Britain, in which South Africa's current president, Thabo Mbeki, had a direct line to President Botha. Robert Harvey's fascinating narrative helps to illuminate not just the South African problems but also more general issues of conflict- and problem-solving.

Zusammenfassung

Important first analysis of hitherto unpublished minutes of Mells Park negotiations - the first face-to-face talks between representatives of President Botha, the Afrikaners and the ANC in exile

As well as a blow-by-blow account of the negotiations, includes very lucid account of the rise of apartheid making comprehensible both the Afrikaner position and the horror of implementation of apartheid

A fascinating read even for the non-specialists; thumbnail sketches of participants and vivid first-hand accounts of apartheid in very readable, journalistic style brings alive apartheid years
