Sumario:"For some four decades Mangosuthu Buthelezi has played a leading role in South African politics and is widely credited for his part in maintaining political activism against apartheid in the 1970s when draconian legislation had either sent the country's opposition into exile or confinement in prison or under house arrest." "Exploiting his dual role as Premier of KwaZulu and traditional premier of the Zulu nation, he challenged the White government to carry out its promise to provide equal treatment to all its peoples. The government's response was little more than a sequence of cosmetic changes to the political structure that entrenched its power, chief among them being the creation of so-called independent Bantustans with little or no hope of financial or political viability."--Jacket
