Abstract: | A review of works deal explicitly with United States government policy toward South Africa in the period after 1975, with a focus on English-language books and scholary articles, drawing on works from all points on the political spectrum. The bibliography at the end of the essay contains a broad array of works which somehow touch on U.S. policy toward South Africa, while the essay itself emphasies those works which substantively treat the various policy options available to the U.S. government vis-à-vis South Africa. There general option categories are distinguished: closer ties with the white-minority regime; verbal condemnation of apartheid and some punitive measures, coupled with a search for moderate solutions in Southern Africa; and stronger actions against South Africa combined with building closer ties to the independent African states and the liberation movement.
