‘NAMIBIA IN THE 1980’s’ 

“Namibia, illegally occupied by South Africa, is the scene of a brutal war, which South African forces have extended into Angola. 

This book summarises the history of Namibia’s exploitation and traces the growth of the liberation movement SWAPO. It documents the united opposition of the Namibian Churches to the South African occupation. It also analyses the latest developments in the war, and the failure of the international community to implement UN resolution 435 calling for the territory to be brought to independence. 

First Published in 1981, and now revised and updated, ‘NAMIBIA IN THE 1980’S’ is the first volume in the much-praised series ‘A Future for Namibia’, which surveys the steps required to change Namibia’s industry, agriculture, fisheries and education system at independence.“
