Dear Student
1 INTRODUCTION
We would like to welcome you as a student of the Department of Political Sciences and trust
that you will find this module interesting and stimulating. We hope that you will be successful in
your academic endeavours and that you will continue your studies in this Department by
selecting other modules that we offer.
READ this tutorial letter as well as your copy of the study@Unisa brochure for information
concerning your studies.
The Department offers modules on a semesterised basis. This implies that there are two
periods of tuition, as well as two sets of examinations during each calendar year. The first
period runs approximately from February to May and the second period from July to October.
The examinations follow each period of study. Please note that aegrotat and supplementary
examinations will coincide with the examinations of the following semester.
THE STUDY MATERIAL FOR THIS MODULE CONSISTS OF:
This tutorial letter,
e-Reserves that must be downloaded from the Unisa Library website (see STEP 3
on pages 6 to 7 of this tutorial letter)
A study guide which can be downloaded from the APC3701 myUnisa page (see
STEP 1 on page 6 of this tutorial letter), and
A prescribed reader that will be delivered to you (see STEP 2 on page 6 of this
tutorial letter).
THE MOST IMPORTANT STUDY MATERIAL ARE THE E-RESERVE
ARTICLES. THE ASSIGNMENTS AND EXAM ARE BASED ON THESE
ARTICLES.
2 PURPOSE AND OUTCOMES
2.1 Purpose
This module, which deals with the Politics of Southern Africa, consists of two options. Students
must choose either Option 1 (Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana) or Option 2 (Angola,
Mozambique and Namibia).
ONLY CHOOSE OPTION 1 OR OPTION 2. DO NOT CHOOSE BOTH OPTIONS. ONCE
CHOSEN, YOU HAVE TO REMAIN WITH YOUR CHOICE OF OPTION FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THE MODULE. THIS MEANS YOU WILL DO TWO ASSIGNMENTS AND
WRITE AN EXAM IN LINE WITH THE OPTION CHOSEN.
Option 1: Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana
The three countries that are the focus of Option 1 are former colonies of Britain. These
countries have experienced different fortunes as independent states. Botswana which started
off as a poor country is currently stable and prosperous. It retained a democratic political system
as well as a capitalist economy. Led by Kenneth Kaunda, Zambia adopted the one-party
political system and African socialism (humanism) a few years after independence. Internal and
external factors led to serious political problems which were eventually responsible for the
removal of Kaunda’s regime in 1990. Zimbabwe’s independence was welcomed and a bright
future was predicted for the country. Zimbabwe started its new life as an independent state well
and made a good impression to political observers. However, in the second decade the country
3
, experienced serious socio-economic and political problems which have paralysed the country
up until the current period.
Option 2: Angola, Mozambique and Namibia
The purpose of this option is to provide you with an introduction to the politics of Angola,
Mozambique and Namibia. Both Mozambique and Angola achieved their independence from
Portugal after armed struggles, only to be plunged into civil wars thereafter. Angola in particular
is noted for the role that natural resources such as oil and diamonds helped to fuel the civil war.
Both have faced the challenge of post-conflict political and economic reconstruction and reform
as well as the challenge of democratic consolidation. First colonised by Germany, the territory
now known as Namibia was entrusted to the temporary guardianship of South Africa by the
League of Nations. It subsequently became a territory ruled by South Africa without an
international mandate. After an armed struggle and a peace process facilitated by the United
Nations (UN), Namibia gained independence in 1990. Although it has not been embroiled in civil
war, it has faced challenges to democratic consolidation similar to those faced by its Southern
African neighbours.
2.2 Outcomes
Option 1: Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana
If you have chosen Option 1, at the end of this you should be able to:
explain the ways in which selected states gained independence;
analyse states’ political and economic systems;
discuss states' problems and successes;
evaluate democratic processes in selected states; and
analyse efforts to solve Zimbabwe’s problems.
Option 2: Angola, Mozambique and Namibia
If you have chosen Option 2, at the end of this you should be able to:
describe some of the main ideological debates and controversies in each state;
assess the prospects for the consolidation of democracy in each state;
describe the political constraints on economic development in each state;
describe the trends in electoral performance in each state.
