Abstract:	This book is intended to be used as a reference guide to the organisations, movements and institutions involved in the struggle for South Africa in the 1980s. It consists of a collection of analytical essays and entries on various individual organisations.

Contents: setting the scene - the capitalist ruling class: major forces and economic organisations - political organisations of the ruling class and its allies - state structure and policies - organisations of classes allied to the capitalist ruling class - political organisations of the national liberation movement - democratic trade unions - community, women's, students' and other popular organisations - the democratic white opposition to apartheid - other political and miscellaneous organisations.
