Additional Details ------------------------------ Product description: Leonard Thompson's Politics In The Republic Of South Africa, is a thoughtful study of a unique political system. A racially stratified, plural society in which the dominant oligarchy has consolidated its position of absolute power, South Africa stands typologically alone, in many respects an anomaly among the politics of our time. The author's interpretation of this complex country not only reflects his own deep knowledge of its political evolution and present situation, but it also demonstrates how the imaginative use of the common functional categories of the Series can serve to illuminate the atypical as well as the generic features of different political systems.
