The Roots of United States Foreign Policy Toward South Africa, 1969-1985 THE ROOTS OF UNITED STATES FOREIGN POLICY TOWARD SOUTH AFRICA, 1969-1985 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF ATLANTA UNIVERSITY IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY BY KEMA IROGBE DEPARTMENT OF POLITICAL SCIENCE ATLANTA, GEORGIA DECEMBER 1986 R (1 - Vt_<_ T^| ABSTRACT POLITICAL SCIENCE IROGBE, KEMA B.A., Jackson State University, 1980 M.P.P.A., Jackson State University, 1982 Dissertation Topic: The Roots of United States Foreign Policy Toward South Africa, 1969-1985 Adviser: Dr. Hashim Gibrill Dissertation dated December 1986 The major concern of this study was to examine the United States foreign policy toward South Africa with a view to determining in whose interest the policy is pursued. With this basic theme in mind: (1) we evaluated United States foreign policy toward South Africa from 1969 to 1985 under the administrations of Presidents Nixon, Ford, Carter and Reagan, (2) we critically analyzed the United States economic, political and military-strategic interests in South Africa, and (3) we assessed the impact of public opinion on the United States policy toward South Africa. Widely differing perceptions exist regarding the poli¬ cy of the United States toward South Africa. Some observers argue that United States policy of engagement with South Africa reinforces the conviction of the apartheid regime that its domination of South African 80 percent population is not only viable but necessary. Other observers see the American foreign 1 2 policy toward South Africa as enhancing the "desired" non¬ violent change. Our position is that the United States pol¬ icy toward South Africa serves the interest of the United States multinational corporations in South Africa rather than the American public. In order to substantiate the thesis, we applied a combination of quantitative and qualitative data research techniques in retrieving relevant information regarding the American public opinion and the operations of United States corporations in South Africa. Our findings in the three areas investigated, among other things, revealed that: (1) even though the United States policy toward South Africa under the administrations of Presidents Nixon, Ford, Carter and Reagan has shown some changes in approach, there has been a continuity in its basic principle of engagement with the apartheid regime, (2) the United States government and its multinational corporations' pursuit of economic and strategic interests override the moral and humanitarian concerns for the oppressed in South Africa, and (3) a greater percentage of the American public would like the United States govern¬ ment to take stiffer measures against South Africa. While concluding that the United States foreign poli¬ cy toward South Africa serves the interest of its multi¬ national corporations (class interest) rather than the Ameri¬ can public, we have recommended that there should be active assistance (moral, technical and financial) rendered to the South African national liberation movements by the United States anti-apartheid groups. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS In the course of writing this dissertation, a number of persons offered invaluable assistance. I would like to express my profound gratitude to the members of my dissertation committee: Professors Hashim Gibrill, Hamid Taqi, Nathaniel Jackson, and Larry Noble for their helpful comments and suggestions.

With this underlying theme in mind, our basic objec¬ tives are three-fold: (1) to evaluate U.S. foreign policy toward South Africa between 1969-1985 under the administra¬ tions of Presidents Nixon, Ford, Carter, and Reagan, (2) to analyze U.S. economic, political, and military-strategic interests in South Africa, and (3) to assess the impact of public opinion on U.S. policy toward South Africa. Statement of the Problem We begin with the racial and class struggle in South Africa. The Union of South Africa rules on the basis of the doctrine of "apartheid," which literally means separateness, but which, in fact, is the political, economic, and social domination of the black majority by a white minority. Under apartheid, the freedom of movement and the political socio¬ economic rights of non-whites are sharply curtailed. Most of the land, including the major mineral areas, is set aside for the white minority and the black majority are set apart 1 2 on reserves.1 The overwhelming majority of blacks belong to the working class.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2013 2013 ANNUAL REPORT | 1 Dear Friends, At The Sentencing Project we view our work on justice reform as having three components – research, public education, and advocacy. During 2013 I believe we made substantial progress in all these areas, and contributed to the changing national climate for reform. Our research documented both disturbing trends and signs of hope. Our analysis of life imprisonment uncovered the striking fact that one of every nine people in prison is serving such a sentence. We also identified an intriguing shift in the racial dynamics of incarceration, particularly among women, noting that the black/white disparity ratio had been cut in half in the first decade of this century. And we found that there is a The Sentencing Project works for a fair and continuing trend of states closing prisons, with 17 doing so over the past three years.

  • Remarks for Chairman Fred Hochberg American Association of Port Authorities Spring Conference Washington, DC – March 25Th, 2014
    Remarks for Chairman Fred Hochberg American Association of Port Authorities Spring Conference Washington, DC – March 25th, 2014 Good afternoon. Thank you, Kurt, for that introduction, and thanks for inviting me to join you here today. I’ve always felt a strong connection to the work you do as Port Authority professionals. And that’s for two reasons: one nostalgic, and one professional. The first reason goes back to 1967, when I was 15 years old. Yes, I’ll do the math for you—I’m 62 today. That year, I had the opportunity to board a freighter headed from Brooklyn to southern Africa. The carrier was a company called Farrell Lines. Today, Farrell Lines still operates a fleet under the Danish Maersk Line, carrying American military cargoes across the Atlantic. On the voyage I took as a teenager, we made our way around the Cape of Good Hope, stopping at a number of ports along the way. I visited Namibia, which at the time was still called German South-West Africa. I visited Angola. I visited the city of Maputo in Mozambique, which was then known as Lourenço Marques. Of course, I had no idea at the time that I’d ever be back in Mozambique, let alone as a government employee. But 45 years later, I was there again—this time to promote U.S. energy and infrastructure investment. As a young man, experiencing a new and mysterious continent was the thrill of a lifetime. And I’ll never forget how it felt to be on that freighter, making our way through bustling harbors, exploring southern Africa port by port.
