Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"An exceptional survey of the political history of South Africa." Times Literary Supplement. "Barber ... has written a detailed, interesting, and accurate analysis of an extraordinary country during an exceptional time" CHOICE. "South Africa in the Twentieth Century is designed to introduce students of contemporary history, politics and international relations to key regions and themes which have dominated discussion of the past century. It does so admirably ... this is a book whose sheer erudition will guarantee it a prominent place on the shelves of anyone wishing to understand South Africa in the twentieth century." Contemporary British History "This book is very accessible and engrossing, but is nevertheless of a high academic standard ... South Africa in the Twentieth Century is a major contribution to the literature on South African politics. It is essential reading not only for any scholar interested in South African politics but also for those with wider interests in questions of national self--identification and the way this affects political behaviour." Progress in Development Studies

Reseña del editor:
