"Those of us who care about Africa owe a great debt to Ben Magubane. No other thinker has given us as much insight into the struggle in South Africa. Here again Magubane demonstrates why his work is required reading for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of apartheid. These are the words-not of a detached academic-but of a political savant whose commitment shines from every page. Read this book, and then act to end apartheid."
- Kevin Danahe, Africa Exchange

"Ben Magubane is a scholar who exemplifies how to use historical analysis to understand the next move by imperialism. His writings are distinguished analyses of the interaction of race and class and the struggle for freedom in Southern Africa."
- Prof. Carol Thompson, Editor, African Studies Review

"A finely sustained analysis. Magubane combines the insights of thescholar and the activist. Essential reading for an understanding of the struggle in South Africa today."
-Ed Ferguson, Assoc. Prof. of History, Oregon State University

"Ben Magubane has shown once again the need for a clear theoretical framework to understand the complexity of South African reality. His recent work cuts through much of Social Science obscurantism and reveals the apartheid system for what it is, namely a brutal totalitarian system. Exiles like Magubane will soon have an opportunity to return to their homeland and engage in the most important task of all namely national reconstruction."
