The Wired Model: South Africa, Foreign Policy and Globalisation - Greg Mills

In this book, Dr Greg Mills, Director of the South African Institute of International Affairs, provides fascinating insights into the challenges facing African states in general, and South Africa and its foreign policy in particular. He assesses South African foreign policy during the years of transition from apartheid to democracy (1990-94), and during the 'honeymoon years' of international courtship (1994-99). He also analyses future options incisively. As one of the few books on foreign policy in a society that has undergone significant socio-political transition, this book should interest not only an academic audience looking for a basis for comparative study, but all those who care about South Africa and its place in the world.
