Download or read book Understanding Namibia written by Henning Melber and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-01-04 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since independence in 1990, Namibia has witnessed only one generation with no memory of colonialism - the 'born frees', who voted in the 2009 elections. The anti-colonial liberation movement, SWAPO, dominates the political scene, effectively making Namibia a de facto one-party state dominated by the first 'struggle generation'. While those in power declare their support for a free, fair, and just society, the limits to liberation are such that emancipation from foreign rule has only been partially achieved. Despite its natural resources Namibia is among the world's most unequal societies and indicators of wellbeing have not markedly improved for many among the former colonized majority, despite a constitution enshrining human rights, social equality, and individual liberty. This book analyses the transformation of Namibian society since Independence. Melber explores the achievements and failures and contrasts the narrative of a post-colonial patriotic history with the socio-economic and political realities of the nation-building project. He also investigates whether, notwithstanding the relative stability prevailing to date, the negotiation of controlled change during Namibia's decolonization could have achieved more than simply a change of those in control.
Download or read book The Namibian War of Independence 1966 1989 written by Richard Dale and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-11-19 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The decolonization of Namibia was delayed from 1966 to 1989--the period of the war of independence--pitting the Namibian nationalists against the South African minority-ruled regime. This book describes the diplomatic, economic and military campaigns of the Namibian and South African belligerents and draws a comparison with several other decolonization wars. Using data from parliamentary debates, the aftermath is examined of the Namibian war and the newly independent nation. The book provides a basis for further investigation of the decolonization process.

Download or read book The Namibian Issue 1920 1980 written by Elna Schoeman and published by Hall Reference Books. This book was released on 1982 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This substantial bibliographical work focuses mainly on international relations, diplomacy and legal proceedings, but also includes minor sections on economics, politics, resources, labour, administration and the role of the churches. It contains close to 1500 entries, covering books, documents as well as articles from a wide range of periodicals. Most of the entries are annotated, but the annotations are brief and not very informative. South African and Western standpoints are covered extensively, while coverage of African opinion is thin and SWAPO material and anti-apartheid publications are scarcely touched. For many students, the sections on UN documents and International Court of Justice material will, however, provide a useful working resource. The author, who is a librarian at the University of Witwatersrand, restricted her research to library resources available in Johannesburg and Pretoria. The bibliography includes a chronology (1883-1980), a subject guide and an author index. This workis an expansion and updating of a previous publication: South West Africa/Namibia: An international issue, 1920-1977. A Select Bibliography (Johannesburg: South African Institute of International Affairs, 1978). See also two bibliographies which concentrate on UN and South Africa's foreign relations: Gail L. Rogaly: South Africa's Foreign Relations, 1961-1979. A select and partially annotated bibliography (Johannesburg: SAIIA 1980, 462 p.) and Elna Schoeman: South Africa and the United Nations (Johannesburg: SAIIA, 1981, 244 p.). Elna Schoeman is also the co-author of a more recent bibliography on Namibia. (Eriksen/Moorsom 1989).

John Dzimba explains how and why Pretoria sought to destabilise Zimbabwe and other front line states, examining the successes and failures of destabilisation against Zimbabwe's economic and political vulnerabilities and attempted responses.

Download or read book Re Viewing Resistance in Namibian History written by Silvester, Jeremy and published by University of Namibia Press. This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Re-Viewing Resistance in Namibian History brings together the work of experienced academics and a new wave of young Namibian historians - architects of the past - who are working on a range of public history and heritage projects, from late nineteenth century resistance to the use of songs, from the role of gender in SWAPO's camps to memorialisation, and from international solidarity to aspects of the history of Kavango and Caprivi. In a culturally and politically diverse democracy such as Namibia, there are bound to be different perspectives on the past, and history will be as plural as the history-tellers. The chapters in this book reflect this diversity, and combine to create a remarkable collection of divergent voices, providing alternative perspectives on the past. Re-Viewing Resistance in Namibian History writes 'forgotten' people into history; provides a reading of the past that reflects the tensions and competing identities that pervaded 'the struggle'; and deals with 'heritage that hurts'.

Download or read book The Question of Namibia written by Laurent C.W. Kaela and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-27 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the Second World war, South Africa claimed that the League of Nations mandate to administer Namibia had lapsed with the dissolution of that organization, and that it was within its power to annex it. It rejected UN efforts to have the territory placed under its trusteeship. This marked the beginning of the intractable dispute over the international status and independence of Namibia. This book analyses the role of the international community through the UN and other organizations in the search for a settlement. It gives attention to the efforts of the Western Contact Group and the people of Namibia themselves, and shows how conditions for a settlement ultimately emerged. Finally, it outlines Namibia's major post-independence challenges.
