The Rhodesian Problem
Author: Elaine Windrich
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040106595
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
First published in 1975, The Rhodesian Problem presents a documentary record of Rhodesia from the establishment of the Crown colony in 1923 to the illegal declaration of independence in 1965 and the post-independence efforts for a settlement of the conflict. The documents chart the gradual development of conflict between the ruling white minority and the black majority. They illustrate the methods adopted by the Smith government to maintain effective power in the face of United Nations and British government sanctions and increasing opposition from the indigenous black population. The main objectives of Rhodesian policy during the period under review were the achievement of independence from Britain; the expansion to the north to create a ‘greater Rhodesia’ dominion in central Africa, including the wealth of the Copperbelt; and the preservation of a society in which white minority rule was based upon a system of rigid racial segregation. There are over 60 documents, ranging from the Buxton committee report of 1921 through to an estimate of the contemporary situation by Peter Niesewand, the journalist who was imprisoned by the Smith regime in 1973. They cover many shades of opinion including UN resolutions, official Rhodesian government propaganda, and statements from the African opposition, and the collection provides overall a dramatic account of the Rhodesian problem. This book will be of interest to students and researchers of history and international politics.

Rhodesia
Author: Patrick O'Meara
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 1501744720
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 245
Book Description
Rhodesia: Racial Conflict or Coexistence? examines the contemporary racial struggle in Rhodesia—a struggle between a controlling white minority and an African majority with little political power or influence. After providing background information on the development of racial attitudes from 1890 onward, Professor O'Meara offers a detailed treatment of current Rhodesian political parties and movements. With precision and objectivity he explains why some Africans have accepted the ground rules of the Rhodesian political system, including laws, elections, and the parliamentary structure, while others have rejected them and seek to destroy the system.

Book Description
Although the idea of a continuous British dominion from the Cape Colony to Cairo in Egypt was first formulated by William Gladstone and Sir Rutherford Alcock and summed up by Sir Edwin Arnold in the phrase From Cape to Cairo, it was Cecil Rhodes who finally embraced this dream as a viable project. This book outlines how close the dream came to reality as far as Central Africa was concerned and why, in the end, it was the impossible dream.
