Legassick, Martin
Armed Struggle and Democracy
The author was part of a group which criticised the strategy of armed struggle in the ANC. For the articulation of this dissenting view they were suspended from the movement in 1979 and finally expelled in 1985. With this paper he inspires a debate, which can claim relevance for current issues of democracy in South Africa and the Southern African region more generally. Given the degree of personal involvement of its author, this analysis is contemporary history based on personal insights, and provides arguments for a necessary discussion.
This publication is one of the results of the research network on Liberation and Democracy in Southern Africa (LiDeSA), currently coordinated through the Nordic Africa Institute.
