"We in South Africa have a war going on. Those who have not realised it are foolish." These words of Frank Chikane, general secretary of the South African Council of Churches, referred to the war that was being waged at the time (1989) in defense of white minority rule and an iniquitous social system. All-encompassing, it operated at political, economic and ideological levels, affecting every area of society and impinging on the lives of all South Africans. War and Society has been written by a number of leading young academics, professionals and activists concerned about the increasing tendency towards escalating militarisation in South Africa in the 1980s.
