The April 1974 coup in Portugal markedly shifted political relationships in Southern Africa, forcing, among other outcomes, a clearer emergence of intractable differences within the region. The contributors to this volume present a careful exposition of events since the coup and an analysis of their implications. Reflecting divergent values and coming to differing conclusions, they confirm that no easy solutions to the regional conflict are at hand and that Southern Africa will for some time remain a focus for international attention.
