Yet, despite the US and South Africa’s disparate positions in the international order, this thesis illustrates that the foreign policies of each towards Africa in the 1990s evolved in parallel fashion through four comparable periods, ultimately becoming strikingly similar near the end of the decade. A central feature of this parallel evolution, and eventual congruence, was the correlation between ‘grand aims’ and ‘modest means’. ‘Grand aims’ refers to the overarching tenets and doctrines that prevailed in US and South African foreign policies towards Africa. During the Cold War and apartheid eras (roughly from the 1950s until 1990), only two predominated (i.e., containment and security). In the 1990s, there were no less than ten. As noted above, such dynamism (over a comparably short period of less than a decade) was tied to the presence of ‘modest means’ -- that is, the limited availability or limited utilisation of resources. In sum, the study argues that when modest means were imposed upon US and South African foreign policy makers, they were oftenforced to devise new grand aims. Yet even when modest means were willingly employed, this too resulted in the articulation of new grand aims, as actions and ends were made to correspond. In both cases, new foreign policy periods emerged as attention, efforts, and resources were re-prioritised. Modest means, therefore, were a force that not only shaped, but drove, the four-period parallel evolution of US and South African foreign policies towards Africa in the 1990s.

First and foremost, I would like to extend my sincere thanks to the British Government and the Marshall Aid Commemoration Commission. In awarding me the Marshall Scholarship, the Government and Commission have enabled me, over the past three years, to associate with some the most exceptional individuals anywhere, and to have many positive experiences (too numerous to mention here). The Marshall programme is a testament to, and encompasses much of, what is positive about British-American relations. Of course many of the programme-related associations and experiences do not just ‘happen’. It takes ability, commitment, and hard work. Accordingly, a very special commendation should be given to Catherine Reive, Assistant Secretary for the Marshall Aid Commemoration Commission. The few words here do not do justice to her efforts on Marshall Scholars’ behalf. Next, I would like to thank my supervisor, Professor James Mayall. It was a privilege to benefit from his immense knowledge of international relations generally, and Africa specifically, and a real pleasure to interact with him. His love of learning, adeptness in teaching, and sincere interest in the individual as much as the individual’s topic are qualities to be emulated. Thanks also needs to be given to those who provided constructive and thought-provoking feedback and/or comments: the members of the Africa Workshops in the Department of International Relations, London School of Economics (LSE); the Departmental Research Panels; the ‘round-table debaters’ at Jimmy’s Bar; the ‘impromptu debaters’ of D708; Matt, Jamie, and Elisa in London House; and Gary and Nancy at Main Camp. Additionally, for helping with source materials and interviews, I would like to thank the fine folks at the Royal Institute of International Affairs (Chatham House, London), the South African Institute of International Affairs (Jan Smuts House, Johannesburg), the Department of International Relations at the University of Witwatersrand, and the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. And I would be neglect if I did not thank the teachers, mentors, and friends who, before the LSE, lent a supportive and inspirational hand in my academic development (whether at Paxico, Wabuansee High, or Kansas State University); here, Nancy Twiss, Aruna Michie, Bill Richter, Buddy Gray, Jerry Reeck, George Keiser, Carol Peak, the entire Community Service Programme family, and Dan Wagner deserve special mention. Outside of academia, I would like to thank: my Mom and Dad (Karen and Leroy), and sisters (Kim and Vicky) for standing with me through thick and thin; Mzee Shetani and Mama Makora for sharing a passion for all that is Africa; the LSE basketball guys for the comradery; Annie and Catherine for the fresh air and open spaces around Gam Fach; Vic and Ted, Jen and Dana, and Marie and Viren for the culinary and conversational delights; Derek for the ‘Moon-luck moments’ which make life interesting; Matt for the pints, snooker, and kebabs; Bobby for the endless laughs; and Kim for the haven in Earl’s Court — to all, for all (both mentioned and unmentioned), you have my warmest appreciation. However, I save my deepest thanks and love for Karen, who makes so much possible. I am truly blessed to have her as my best friend in life, for life.

  • On the Ground Achiever and Development Leader
    On the ground achiever and development leader Moushira Khattab is -in no respective order- an Arab, African, Mediterranean, and a Woman born and bred in a 7000 year-old civilization, and developing country; Egypt. Every part of this unique mix blessed her with wide-ranging opportunities to work very closely with those most in need of an organization like UNESCO. Her education and decades long work experience spanned between Africa, USA, Europe and Australia which -along with her diverse roots- helped shape a character of a truly inclusive Global Citizen. As a Ph.D in human rights law, and within her ministerial mandate as Secretary General of the National Council for Childhood and Motherhood [NCCM] - and later on Minister of State for Family and Population, Khattab initiated and led one of the most comprehensive human-rights-based legal reforms in Egypt. And as a firm believer that women, youth, and children are the catalysts for change, she spearheaded the amendment of the Egyptian penal system against human trafficking, the sale of children, sexual abuse and exploitation in pornography, as well as prohibiting and criminalizing Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), which she continues to support in African countries affected by the practice to date. She also orchestrated legal reforms to increase the minimum marriage age to 18 years. Khattab’s credibility and expertise on international diplomacy, both in multilateral and bilateral forums led to her appointment in serving her country through several events of historical significance. She became Egypt’s first Ambassador to post-apartheid South Africa, during Nelson Mandela’s presidency.

  • The Gordian Knot: Apartheid & the Unmaking of the Liberal World Order, 1960-1970
    THE GORDIAN KNOT: APARTHEID & THE UNMAKING OF THE LIBERAL WORLD ORDER, 1960-1970 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Ryan Irwin, B.A., M.A. History ***** The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Professor Peter Hahn Professor Robert McMahon Professor Kevin Boyle Professor Martha van Wyk © 2010 by Ryan Irwin All rights reserved. ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the apartheid debate from an international perspective. Positioned at the methodological intersection of intellectual and diplomatic history, it examines how, where, and why African nationalists, Afrikaner nationalists, and American liberals contested South Africa’s place in the global community in the 1960s. It uses this fight to explore the contradictions of international politics in the decade after second-wave decolonization. The apartheid debate was never at the center of global affairs in this period, but it rallied international opinions in ways that attached particular meanings to concepts of development, order, justice, and freedom. As such, the debate about South Africa provides a microcosm of the larger postcolonial moment, exposing the deep-seated differences between politicians and policymakers in the First and Third Worlds, as well as the paradoxical nature of change in the late twentieth century. This dissertation tells three interlocking stories. First, it charts the rise and fall of African nationalism. For a brief yet important moment in the early and mid-1960s, African nationalists felt genuinely that they could remake global norms in Africa’s image and abolish the ideology of white supremacy through U.N.

  • THE UNITED STATES and SOUTH AFRICA in the NIXON YEARS by Eric J. Morgan This Thesis Examines Relat
    ABSTRACT THE SIN OF OMISSION: THE UNITED STATES AND SOUTH AFRICA IN THE NIXON YEARS by Eric J. Morgan This thesis examines relations between the United States and South Africa during Richard Nixon’s first presidential administration. While South Africa was not crucial to Nixon’s foreign policy, the racially-divided nation offered the United States a stabile economic partner and ally against communism on the otherwise chaotic post-colonial African continent. Nixon strengthened relations with the white minority government by quietly lifting sanctions, increasing economic and cultural ties, and improving communications between Washington and Pretoria. However, while Nixon’s policy was shortsighted and hypocritical, the Afrikaner government remained suspicious, believing that the Nixon administration continued to interfere in South Africa’s domestic affairs despite its new policy relaxations. The Nixon administration concluded that change in South Africa could only be achieved through the Afrikaner government, and therefore ignored black South Africans. Nixon’s indifference strengthened apartheid and hindered liberation efforts, helping to delay black South African freedom for nearly two decades beyond his presidency.

Doctoral Dissertations. 364. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations/364 U.S. Military Intervention in the Post-Cold War Era: A Case-Study Analysis of Presidential Decision Making Dennis N. Ricci, Ph.D. University of Connecticut 2014 ABSTRACT The primary focus of this study is to explain presidential decision making, specifically whether to intervene militarily or not in a given circumstance in the Post-Cold War era. First, we define military intervention as the deployment of troops and weaponry in active military engagement (not peacekeeping). The cases in which we are interested involve the actual or intended use of force (“boots on the ground”), in other words, not drone attacks or missile strikes. Thus, we substantially reduce the number of potential cases by excluding several limited uses of force against Iraq, Sudan, and Afghanistan in the 1990s. Given the absence of a countervailing force or major power to serve as deterrent, such as the Soviet enemy in the Cold War period, there are potentially two types of military interventions: (1) humanitarian intervention designed to stop potential genocide and other atrocities and (2) the pre-emptive reaction to terrorism or other threats, such as under the Bush Doctrine.

  • Winds of Change Speech by British Prime Minister Maurice Harold Macmillan
    Winds of Change Speech by British Prime Minister Maurice Harold Macmillan 3 February 1960 It is, as I have said, a special privilege for me to be here in 1960 when you are celebrating what I might call the golden wedding of the Union. At such a time it is natural and right that you should pause to take stock of your position, to look back at what you have achieved, to look forward to what lies ahead. In the fifty years of their nationhood the people of South Africa have built a strong economy founded upon a healthy agriculture and thriving and resilient industries. No one could fail to be impressed with the immense material progress which has been achieved. That all this has been accomplished in so short a time is a striking testimony to the skill, energy and initiative of your people. We in Britain are proud of the contribution we have made to this remarkable achievement. Much of it has been financed by British capital. According to the recent survey made by the Union Government, nearly two-thirds of the oversea investment outstanding in the Union at the end of 1956 was British. That is after two staggering wars which have bled our economy white. But that is not all. We have developed trade between us to our common advantage, and our economies are now largely interdependent. You export to us raw materials, food and gold. We in return send you consumer goods or capital equipment. We take a third of all your exports and we supply a third of all your imports.

  • The Shifting Attitudes of Australian Evangelicals Towards Race in the 1960S
    The shifting attitudes of Australian evangelicals towards race in the 1960s Phil Rademaker Australian attitudes to race and racial discrimination were changing in the late 1950s and early 1960s. The Commonwealth Government’s policies of restrictive immigration (known as the ‘White Australia’ policy) had enjoyed strong support as the majority of Australians believed the country was destined to be, in the words of Prime Minister John Curtin in 1939, ‘forever the home of the descendants of those people who came here in peace in order to establish in the South Seas an outpost of the British race.’1 Yet the Second World War stoked fears of being overrun by Asian masses and this prompted a relaxation of the policy to enable non-British Europeans to become citizens.2 While this change was motivated by racist fears, over the next decade as former British colonies declared their independence and as the world reflected upon the actions of Nazi Germany, many in Australia started questioning Australia’s racial policy. In 1963, Hubert Opperman replaced Alexander Downer (Sr) as minister for immigration, signalling a shift in the Liberal party, and by 1965 Gough Whitlam had convinced the Australian Labor Party (ALP) to remove its support for White Australia. Yet, as historian Judith Brett notes, there was still significant support for the policy among older ALP members and voters, and among much of the Coalition.3 Paul Strangio likewise observes a division in Australia regarding the question of race. On the one hand, Prime Minister Harold Holt saw humanitarian

Williams Associate Professor of International Affairs © Copyright 2012 by Annelisa Lindsay All rights reserved ii Abstract Continuity and Change in U.S.-Congo Relations: A critical analysis of post-Cold War U.S. foreign policy toward Zaire-Democratic Republic of Congo At the end of the Cold War, a shifting global political climate began to change U.S. foreign policy. U.S. policymakers soon realized that the United States no longer needed to compete with the Soviet Union for influence around the world. New policy priorities took the place of competition in proxy wars, which meant that Africa began to suffer from declining geostrategic importance. Zaire, which had shared a ―special relationship‖ with the United States during the Cold War, was not exempt from the growing malaise in U.S. Africa policy. This study seeks to analyze the continuity or change in U.S. policy toward Zaire, now Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), in the post-Cold War era by examining how different foreign policymaking institutions (White House, Congress, national security bureaucracy) directed the decision-making process to influence situations (routine, crisis, extended crisis) in U.S.-Congo relations from 1989 to 2003.
