Full Description
This book provides readers
with the first comprehensive study of South Africa's foreign policy conducted in
a multilateral setting, by placing on record over 1000 of South Africa's votes
at the United Nations over a 20 year period. The study investigates consistency
in terms of South Africa's declared foreign policy and its actual voting
practices at the United Nations.
Democratic South Africa's Foreign Policy: Voting
Behaviour in the United Nations offers
a compendium of South Africa's United Nations behaviour during a poignant
transitional period in the country's recent history. In setting out a framework
for analysing the conduct of other countries' voting behaviour in parallel with
this study, it can be used to advance the field as a useful comparative tool. This
book presents the material needed for International Relations scholars and
practitioners in the field to make a reasoned and reflective assessment of this
dimension of South Africa's foreign policy.
