Rights in Conflict: The United Nations & South Africa

Rights in Conflict presents, in step-by-step detail, the entire decision-making process that led the UN to take an active role in South Africa and its neighbouring countries Southern Rhodesia, Namibia, Angola and Mozambique. It provides a detailed account of the changes in the interpretation of the Charter that allowed the United Nations to force South Africa to abandon its apartheid policy and to accept a democratic electoral system.
