The Transfer of Power in South Africa

Front Cover
David Philip Publishers, 1998 - Constitutional history - 143 pages
From the initial contact between the National Party and the ANC, to the release of Nelson Mandela, to the country's first democratic elections, Davenport examines the process of reconciliation and explores how a host of problems that may have undermined peace-making efforts were overcome. He then sets out an up-to-date analysis of the Government of National Unity's task of building a new society against a volatile political and socio-economic background.
