A balancing act: key U.S. interests and Apartheid South Africa -- "Mutual cooperation" and "serious concern": the Truman and Eisenhower administrations, 1948-1961 -- "The best of both worlds": the Kennedy administration, 1961-1963 -- "A frustratingly difficult set of policy considerations to juggle": the Johnson administration, 1963-1969 -- "The whites are here to stay": the Nixon and Ford administrations, 1969-1977 -- "Andy Young is not a policy": the Carter administration, 1977-1981 -- "Neither the clandestine embrace nor the polecat treatment": the Reagan administration, 1981-1984 --"There are occasions when quiet diplomacy is not enough": the Reagan administration, 1984-1986 -- "Sanctions by themselves do not represent a policy": the Reagan, Bush, and Clinton administrations, 1986-1994.

This book charts the evolution of U.S. foreign policy towards South Africa during the apartheid era, beginning in 1948 and extending through the 1994 elections and the establishment of the country's first non-racial democratic government. Thomson highlights three sets of conflicting Western interests: strategic, economic, and human rights.
