Mozambique’s Samora Machel: A Life Cut Short

Abstract

fcohistorians/docs/the_rhodesia_settlement_final_with_cover_. 3. L. White, Unpopular Sovereignty: Rhodesian Independence and African Decolonization (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 2015), especially 310–311, and review by C. Saunders, ‘Review of L. White, Unpopular Sovereignty: Rhodesian Independence and African Decolonization’, Itinerario, 40, no. 3 (2016), 555–556. 4. The joke was that Idi Amin thought of renaming Uganda after himself until it was pointed out to him that the people of Cyprus were called Cypriots. 5. There are odd references to the Burkovsky Archive online (e.g. 135 n. 7, 195, 202 n. 77). There is no list of archival sources in the bibliography. 6. On the Soviet role see, especially, V. Shubin, The Hot ‘Cold War’: The USSR in Southern Africa (London: Pluto Press, 2008). How Soviet-Chinese rivalry influenced Zimbabwe’s liberation struggle remains little explored.
