| Samenvatting |
The cruel conflict between the government of Mozambique and Renamo, which began in a significant form in 1977, ended with the elections in 1994. This book looks to the reasons why with Renamo, unlike most successful rebel movements, the equation between popular support and rebel strength hardly applied, and why it was so dangerous for the Mozambican government even though South Africa had disengaged from its day to day operations, and finally why is was relatively succesfull in the 1994 elections. Renamo was a military organisation and many of its activities were coherent and derived from a centralised leadership. The book pays attention to the international dimension of Renamo, describing its relations with the USA, Europe and countries in southern Africa, including Kenya, and to Renamo's domestic situation, describing, inter alia, its ideology, structure, tactics, and the role of religion in the movement. In addition it describes the peace process and Renamo's eventual participation in the elections.
