Abstract
Minter argues that the conflicts in Angola and Mozambique since independence represent a new kind of non-conventional warfare characteristic of the contra period - neither classic guerilla warfare nor straightforward external aggression, but comprising elements of civil war dominated by regional and global external powers. He examines the structures and strategies of Unita and Renamo and the responses of the Angolan and Mozambique states. William Minter is a leading US specialist on Southern Africa. His books include: Portuguese and the West, King Solomon's Mines Revisited - Western Interests and the Burdened History of Southern Africa and Operation Timber - Pages from the Savimbi Dossier.
