Umkhonto weSizwe was arguably the last of the great liberation movements of the 20th century but it never got to match triumphant into Pretoria. A small, communist-trained group of revolutionaries committed to the seizure of power, they found their principals engaged in negotiated settlement with the enemy and were disbanded soon after. The history of MK is one of paradox and contradiction, of successes and failures. In this pocket guide, which draws widely on the pesonal experiences of MK soldiers, Janet Cherry offers a new and nuanced account of Umkhonto. She presents in broad outline the various stages in MK's thirty-year history, considers the difficult strategic and moral problems the army faced, and argues that its operations are likely to be remembered as a just war conducted with considerable restraint.
