Operating from within the South African governmentÍs apartheid systems, Gatsha Buthelezi ? Chief Minister of the KwaZulu homeland ? presented himself as a leading opponent of apartheid but resolutely opposed the struggle for liberation led by the ANC and its allies. He preached a doctrine of non-violence yet headed the Inkatha movement, which was widely accused of using violence against its opponents. In contrast to the call of the worldwide anti-apartheid movement for sanctions against South Africa, Buthelezi toured Western capitals seeking new investments. Who was this man and what did he stand for? Whose side was he on? Mzala examined these vital questions in an analysis using a wide range of materials, including interviews with some of ButheleziÍs contemporaries to investigate a complex political figure.
