Description

Originally published in 1981, this Routledge Library Editions volume presents a contrarian academic perspective on South Africa's 20th-century transformation. The authors argued that the country's extraordinary social and economic changes provided remarkable stability, proposing that reform would emerge from within the ruling white oligarchy rather than external Liberation Movements. The work contends that free market economic forces represented the primary mechanism for dismantling apartheid structures. This historical analysis offers novel sociological, political, and strategic data for scholars, students, and researchers examining South African history, institutional change, and the complex dynamics of systemic transformation during a pivotal period in the nation's past.

Key Features

Originally published in 1981 as part of the Routledge Library Editions: South Africa collection, offering a preserved historical perspective on contemporary debates.

Presents an unconventional academic argument that South Africa's 20th-century social and economic changes created national stability rather than instability.

Proposes that internal reform from the ruling white oligarchy was more likely than external Liberation Movement pressure to drive political transformation.

Examines free market economic mechanisms as the primary solvent for dismantling apartheid and driving systemic change.

Provides original sociological and strategic data for reassessing South African history, politics, and institutional development during the apartheid era.
