Chairman's Note

I have listened carefully to the many different points of fact, fantasy, predilection and prediction which were made during the sittings of our Study Group on South . We were all agreed on the uniqueness of the South African imbroglio. It differs from other post-war liberation struggles at most levels, but chiefly because in most other colonial territories there were few white settlers established over generations. Moreover, most settlers retained links with their countries of origin - which the have not done. Although analogies can be drawn, they are without exception limited. We were also agreed, by the time of our last meeting, that the auguries for a 'negotiated settlement'-which we understood to mean a substantive reallocation of political power in favour of the representative leaders of the black majority - are poor. This assessment stands in sharp contrast to the cautious optimism expressed by a number of people of varying backgrounds and political persuasions at the time of the visit of the Commonwealth Eminent Persons' Group to in 1986. From our discussions, it became clear that the debate within the state power bloc, i.e. those elements discussed in Chapters 6, 7 and 8, is now about the optimum levels of repressive activity. Those voices once urging the necessity of 'reform'- however ill-defined- have been quietened. This situation, predictably, serves to harden prevailing attitudes within the resistance and polarises the political situation yet further. Beneath the apparently deadlocked surface in South Africa in 1988 there lies a variety of fluid or potentially fluid factors, but the chances of these breaking through the surface and creating opportunities for change are, at present, very slight. The South African government gives no indication of seriously considering any initiative which would loosen its own stranglehold on power- an essential component of any negotiations worth the name. In direct relation to this, the resistance movements become increasingly unwilling to entertain notions of tac-tical compromise. For those who abhor the discriminatory and vicious political system in South Africa, this scenario prompts a simple answer to the question

375 376 Chairman's Note

'What is to be done?'. It is to encourage pressure, by whatever means, which will force the rulers of that country to recognise the need for real :tegotiation if South Africa is not to tear itself apart in the coming years. John F. Kennedy's much-quoted maxim has seldom been more apposite: 'Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.' It is in the nature of politics that deals can be struck in spite of protagonists' vows never to compromise; the simple truth of South Africa today is that the longer the impasse is allowed to continue, the more remote the possibility of a solution becomes. The nature of that solution is something which cannot yet be guessed, but the best hope of encouraging it is by sustained and unflinching pressure to make South Africa's minority see that their self-interest lies in allowing the rest of the population to share fully in the benefits of living in what should be one of the most favoured and prosperous countries on the African continent. Until they accept that, they should recognise that they will never be able to live at peace again. To drive this point home is the first step towards ending the continuing cycle of temporary gains and losses which have so debilitating an effect on both state and resistance in South Africa.
