Abstract

Shortly before the onset of the Congo crisis, the British Prime Minister’s ‘Wind of Change’ speech in South Africa had made it clear that his country was committed to decolonisation.2 However, the details of the process were the subject of a keen debate within both the Government and the governing party. Some wanted to move more vigorously in this direction than others. And during the early 1960s, the debate was nowhere sharper than in relation to the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland, or the Central African Federation as this British dependency (in practice more of a quasi-dependency) was popularly called.
