In the post–cold war world the stated general goals of United States foreign policy—development, democracy, and security—are congruent with those of African peoples. When deciding how best to achieve these widely endorsed goals, however, a chasm emerges between perspectives crafted purely in the American foreign policy arena and those rooted in African realities.

From war to peace in Angola: Increasing the chances of success
In: Review of African political economy, Band 23, Heft 67, S. 111-118
ISSN: 0305-6244
Der vorliegende Text ist eine gemeinsame Erklärung von Action for Southern Africa (ACTSA/UK), dem Washington Office on Africa (WOA) und dem Komitee Zuidelijk Afrika (Niederlande) zur Lage in Angola. Nach einer kurzen Darlegung der Schwierigkeiten und Chancen der Umsetzung des Lusaka-Protokolls werden Empfehlungen zur Unterstützung bzw. besseren Absicherung des Friedensprozesses an den UNO-Sicherheitsrat gegeben. Diese Empfehlungen beziehen sich u.a. auf eine Verlängerung des UNAVEM-Mandates, Verstärkung des Drucks auf UNITA zur Demobilisierung, umfassendere Einbeziehung der Zivilbevölkerung in den Friedensprozess und eine größere Flexibilität im Umgang mit Schwierigkeiten.

The US and the war in Angola
In: Review of African political economy, Band 18, Heft 50
ISSN: 1740-1720
Since South Africa's withdrawal from Namibia in 1989, the US has become the primary patron of Angola's UNITA contras. US resentment about the defeat of their Joint intervention into Angola with South Africa in 1975–76 fed into right‐wing cold war calculations in the Reagan period. Covert aid increased greatly from 1986 despite liberal pressures to be realistic and recognise Luanda partly as a result of influential lobbying in Washington on behalf of UNITA, with which the Angolan government found it hard to compete. But 'global managers' who were more pragmatic than ideological manage to promote the 1988 accords with the Soviet Union, Cuba, Angola and South Africa which lead to the two former withdrawing from Angola and Namibian independence, although Washington failed to follow through with an internal peace plan for Angola and stepped up arms supplies to UNITA which lead to renewed fighting. However, there are some signs that the UNITA lobby may be on the wane.

Über die Motive und Methoden der Renamo-Rebellen bei der Führung des brutalen und zerstörerischen Bürgerkriegs war bisher wenig bekannt. Interviews mit früheren Mitgliedern der Guerrilla geben Aufschluß darüber, daß die meisten nicht aus ideologischen Motiven sondern aus Angst um ihr Leben mitmachten. Dazu ein Interview mit Marcelino dos Santos über die künftigen Beziehungen zu den USA und die Strategie gegenüber Renamo. (DÜI-Wsl)
