Canada, Scandinavia and Southern Africa

• In February 1978 a joint Scandinavian-Canadian conference was held in Ottawa. The conference was intended to examine and discuss Canadian and Scandinavian perspectives on and policies towards the states of Southern Africa, and to analyse and compare the different development strategies and political economies that have emerged in the region in recent years. Scholars, officials and activists from Scandinavia, Canada and Africa were invited to attend. The conference was sponsored by the Scandinavian Institute of African Studies, the Norman Paterson School of International Affairs, Carleton University (Ottawa), and the Centre for African Studies at Dalhousie University (Halifax).The present volume concentrates on the relations between Canada, Scandinavia and Southern Africa. A companion volume Conflict and Change in Southern Africa, edited by D. Anglin, T. Shaw and C. Widstrand (University Press of America, 1978) incorporates a variety of analyses, perceptions and ideologies and discusses the position of the front - line states, the liberation movements and prospects of change within South Africa.
