Liberation movements as governments: Namibia`s Decolonisation Under SWAPO. A Review Since Independence,
by
Henning Melber
ÂÂ
This presentation reflects upon the achievements by and limits to liberation in the fight
against (settler) colonialism in Southern African societies in the process of decolonisation
with particular reference to the Namibian case. It explores Namibia’s post-colonial realities
with the aim to place liberation movements as governments into the context of their natures
and role within social transition and transformation.
ÂÂ
Dr Henning Melber is Research Director at The Nordic Africa Institute in Uppsala, Sweden
since then. His publications include (as editor and contributor) Limits to Liberation in
Southern Africa. The unfinished business of democratic consolidation (Cape Town 2003).
