The Ceasefire
The foreign secretary also stated that measures would be undertaken to insure the neutralization of the Rhodesian Air Force. Taken together, these moves were enough to enable the Patriotic Front to enter into a partial ceasefire agreement. In a conference characterized by continued Salisbury cooperation with the British, the Patriotic Front&s;s decision to defer discussion on the assembly points and related issues and to participate in what, in r…
The Delegations
The delegation led by Bishop Muzorewa was a heterogeneous group, united in some objectives, but severely divided elsewhere. For the bishop&s;s delegation the central objective of the conference was obtaining recognition from Britain of its legitimacy as a government and, flowing from that, the lifting of international sanctions. The delegation led by Joshua Nkomo and Robert Mugabe also assumed a British bias in the bishop&s;s favor and also doubt…
Third Encounters of the Close Kind: Dominant Third-Party Mediation
The very term is almost embarrassingly out of place in the modern world. The conference was remarkable in history in that the dominant third-party mediation was so overt. That, however, was attributable to the nature of the dispute and the conference that ended it. It was a decolonizing venture—perhaps the last to be seen—in which the British used the skills of manipulation honed over centuries of imperial rule. In the Rhodesian situation, on the…
Denouement
The possibility of a coalition government of Bishop Abel Muzorewa, Joshua Nkomo, and Ian Smith had been highly touted by many Rhodesian whites and some British officials during the campaign. The British had to draw on an ever-decreasing store of goodwill to cajole, wheedle, and otherwise to persuade the Rhodesians to abide by the agreement and not respond to what Walls and others viewed as the Patriotic Front&s;s provocations. The elections were …
Setting the Stage
To set the stage for the return to legality, the Conservatives dispatched a commission under the chairmanship of Lord Boyd, a former colonial secretary, to observe the Rhodesian election of April 17-21, 1979. By the time Margaret Thatcher became Britain&s;s Prime Minister in May 1979, the Rhodesian problem had been a standard fixture of British political life for a decade and a half. Henry Kissinger&s;s advent on the scene introduced the United S…
Overture and the Constitution
The Lancaster House Conference was a three-act play, or, better put, a one-act play performed three times, but with enough variety and tension so as not to rob each performance of its drama. Each dealt with a distinct area of the settlement-the constitution, the transitional arrangements, and the cease-fire—and lasted about one month. The promise of political control over public officials and a traditional form of constitutional amendment was cle…
The Transition
On September 18, that is, after the Patriotic Front had accepted Carrington&s;s agenda and before the Muzorewa delegation formally agreed to the broad British constitutional principles, Joshua Nkomo and Robert Mugabe had issued their own plan for the transition. Their proposals suggested the creation of an eight-man transitional governing council, composed of four Patriotic Front members and four British/Salisbury regime representatives, with a B…
Accounting for Success
The operation may have been a success, but everyone knows what happened to the patient. The essential ingredients of a successful negotiation, issues of conflict and a common interest in ending the conflict, were present. The net effect was the creation of a corps of kibitzers dedicated to seeking a successful resolution, though, of course, they may have differed among themselves in their interpretation of success. The British engineered a series…
A Peace in Southern Africa: The Lancaster House Conference on Rhodesia, 1979
In the middle of 1979 Rhodesia formed one leg of the triad of southern Africa's remaining white-ruled states. The country appeared no closer to peace and majority rule than it had at any time since Ian Smith's 1965 Unilateral Declaration of Independence. But by the end of that year a remarkable agreement had been forged that ended Rhodesia's rebell
