Parchment Barriers Revisited
At first glance the U.S. and South African bills of rights appear radically different. Rights the United States codified in 1792 were exclusively civil and political, while South Africa, in 1996, recognized the full panoply of modern rights: economic, social and environmental, as well as civil and political. Such differences can be deceiving as both bills have important similarities. Both were political documents with origins in a complex and dif…
Opposition in Japan
FIRST, TWO DISCLAIMERS. DIPLOMATS ARE NOT ACADEMICS. THIS WILL be a personal account, based on some firsthand experience of contemporary Japanese politics (pursued always in terms of the UK interest) supported by some — though not enough — background reading. It will not, however, be an academic text.The second disclaimer is more complicated. Japan had five different prime ministers during my relatively brief stay in Tokyo. It experienced four co…
South Africa in Transition
South Africa and its neighbours continuity and change in the post‐apartheid era
The end of apartheid could be a mixed blessing for South Africa's neighbours, if the new government yields to domestic pressures to end migrant labour and to use its dominance of the regional political economy for short‐term gain. This paper assesses the elements of continuity and change likely to characterize South African regional policy, and argues that the greatest challenge will be to reconcile domestic demands for jobs, welfare spending, an…

An Appetite for Power
A Subsystemic Analysis of the Southern African Development Coordination Conference
The overriding structural and political characteristic of the Southern African subsystem has been the dominance of the Republic of South Africa.1 Indeed, South Africa's ties to the subordinate states of the region have given the subsystem form and substance. An economic Gulliver among Lilliputians, South Africa created a network of trade dependencies, investment flows, labor migration patterns, and infrastructural ties (railways, roads, etc.) whi…
African Boundary Conflict
Modern African life has been profoundly affected by the brief period of European colonial domination during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. While the past is prologue for all states, the ramifications of Africa's colonial past have been felt with particular acuity in the current era due to the speed of Africa's transition from colonial status to that of independence. Many aspects of contemporary Africa reflect the residual effects of colo…
