The notion of engagement represtents an indispensible tool in a foreign policy practitioner's armory. The idea of constructive engagement is forwarded by governments as a method whereby pressure can be brought to bear on countries to improve their record on human rights, while diplomatic and economic contracts can be maintained. But does this approach succeed? To answer this question this book offers a critical evaluation of one of the best-known examples of constructive engagement--the Reagan administration's policy toward South Africa. Chester Crocker was appointed as Reagan's assistant secretary of state for African affairs in 1981. This book aims to determine how successful Crocker's constructive engagement policy was in South Africa and the neighboring states of Namibia and Angola. In this timely and brilliant study, Davies examines the implications for current applications of constructive engagement as a tool of foreign policy.

The basic question is how can the United States best persuade and assist the South African government end apartheid without forcing the country into the hands of a pro-Soviet regime. Racial segregation has been the way of life in South Africa for more than three hundred years. Since the Truman administration there have been continuing efforts by the United States to have the Sought African government ease its apartheid policies. Unfortunately the methods used have done little to change the situation. There are presently two solutions being offered. The one receiving the greatest amount of Congressional support requires economic sanctions and proposes complete disinvestment. The premise is that if enough financial pressure is exerted, the government will end its discriminatory practices. Opponents argue this would only cause hardship for the black population and lead to more violence. They propose the United States continue its efforts to bring about reform through the policy of constructive engagement. This policy, however, has been applied in a manner that favors leftist regimes in Southern Africa and is punative to South Africa. The policy of constructive engagement should be scrapped and a concerted effort made to assist in bringing about change in South Africa through a policy of presence. (Author).

First Published in 1990.This volume originates with a conference at Haverford College, April 28-30, 1989. On that weekend an international group of scholars, inside and outside governments, from Africa and elsewhere, assembled to address the theme, "Toward Peace and Security in Southern Africa." The conference was based on a sense of urgency concerning the continuing plight of the region -- reflected in the renewed state of emergency in South Africa and the declining economies in southern Africa - as well as, paradoxically, a sense of impending opportunity for South Africa and the region, as manifested in the Angola-Namibia accords recently negotiated.
