Borstelmann makes a persuasive argument in this book that the United States aided and abetted the establishment of the apartheid regime in South Africa because, despite reservations about Nationalist racial policies, it viewed South Africa as a vital ally in the Cold War. Especially noteworthy is the way the book interweaves race relations in both societies and how this affected policy.
