‘I have discovered the secret that after climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb. I have taken a moment here to rest . . . But I can only rest for a moment, for with freedom comes responsibilities, and I dare not linger, for my long walk is not ended.’ Long Walk to FreedomIn 1994, Nelson Mandela became the first president of democratic South Africa. Five years later, he stood down. In that time, he and his government wrought the most extraordinary transformation, turning a nation riven by centuries of colonialism and apartheid into a fully functioning democracy in which all South Africa’s citizens, black and white, were equal before the law. Dare Not Linger is the story of Mandela’s presidential years, drawing heavily on the memoir he began to write as he prepared to finish his term of office, but was unable to finish. Now, the acclaimed South African writer, Mandla Langa, has completed the task using Mandela’s unfinished draft and a wealth of previously unseen archival material. With a prologue by Mandela's widow, Graça Machel, the result is a vivid and inspirational account that tells the extraordinary story of the transition from decades of apartheid rule and the challenges Mandela overcame to make a reality of his cherished vision for a liberated South Africa.

Ett oförglömligt porträtt av en av 1900-talets mest inspirerande historiska personer till 100-årsjubileet av hans födelse

När Nelson Mandela, då 44-årig advokat och ANC-aktivist, arresterades av Sydafrikas apartheidregim 1962, anade han inte att han skulle tillbringa de kommande 27 åren i fängelse. Under dessa 10.052 dagar i trånga fängelseceller skrev Mandela hundratals brev till myndigheter, aktivister, regeringstjänstemän och till sin fru Winnie och sina fem barn. 255 av dessa brev - de flesta aldrig tidigare offentliggjorda finns samlade i den här boken och ger ett intimt porträtt av Nelson Mandela. Fängelsebreven kommer med självklarhet ställas vid sidan av Den långa vägen till frihet [1994] som en omistlig dokumentation av en av 1900-talets mest inspirerande historiska personer. Breven är indelade efter de fyra olika fängelser där Mandela internerades, och varje del inleds med en introduktion som ger en historisk översikt. Bokens redaktör, journalisten och författaren Sahm Venter, har i decennier haft anti-apartheid-rörelsen som sitt främsta område. Förordet är skrivet av Zamaswazi Dlamini-Mandela, dotterdotter till Nelson Mandela och Winnie Madikizela-Mandela. I svensk översättning av Leif Janzon, Jan Ristarp, Gabriel Setterborg & Kjell Waltman.

NELSON MANDELA [1918-2013] var en sydafrikansk advokat, politiker och statsman. Mandela var 1994-1999 den förste sydafrikanske president som valts i demokratiska val med rösträtt för hela befolkningen. 1993 tilldelades han Nobels Fredspris. När han fängslades 1962, som aktiv och tongivande medlem av ANC (African National Congress), var det med hjälp av amerikanska underrättelsetjänsten CIA, som ända fram till 2008 stämplade Mandela som terrorist.

»Hjärtslitande och inspirerande. Ger oss en direkt inblick i hur Nelson Mandela utvecklades till en av vår tids moraliska hjältar.« New York Times

»Häpnadsväckande. Eftersom Mandelas tankar och känslor här artikuleras i realtid får vi en ny lins genom vilken vi kan betrakta hans personliga och politiska utveckling. Mest av allt förklarar breven hur Mandela kunde överleva den tärande fängelsevistelsen med sin passion och sin integritet intakt.« Los Angeles Times

»Ett oumbärligt, intimt porträtt av den store ledaren.« Kirkus Reviews

»Nelson Mandelas brev berättar en historia bortom sina egna ord.« Tayari Jones, New York Times

This collection of his articles, speeches, letters from underground, and the transcripts from his trials vividly demonstrates the charisma and determination of a towering figure in the struggle for racial equality in South Africa. Now in a new edition, No Easy Walk to Freedom is both a vital historical document and a chronicle of the life and thoughts of one of the greatest campaigners for freedom the world has known.

Conversations With Myself is a moving collection of letters, diary entries and other writing that provides a rare chance to see the other side of Nelson Mandela's life, in his own voice: direct, clear, private. An international bestseller, Conversations With Myself is an intensely personal book that complements his autobiography Long Walk to Freedom.In his foreword to Nelson Mandela's book, President Barack Obama writes: 'Conversations With Myself does the world an extraordinary service in giving us [a] picture of Mandela the man.'Conversations With Myself gives readers insight to the darkest hours of Nelson Mandela's twenty-seven years of imprisonment and his troubled dreams in his cell on Robben Island. It contains the draft of an unfinished sequel to Long Walk to Freedom, notes from Madiba's famous speeches, and even doodles made during meetings. There are photos from his life, journals written while on the run during the anti-apartheid struggles of the early 1960s, and conversations with friends in almost 70 hours of recorded interviews. An intimate journey from the first stirrings of his political conscience to his galvanizing role on the world stage, Conversations With Myself is an extraordinary glimpse of the man behind one of the world's most beloved public figures.'More revealing of the man than his autobiography Long Walk to Freedom - and in many respects more moving as well' F.W. De Klerk'A book that breaks the heart and then makes it sing' Andrew Rawnsley, Observer Books of the Year'Intensely moving, raw and unmediated, told in real time with all the changes in perspective that brings, over the years, mixing the prosaic with the momentous. Health concerns, dreams, political initiatives spill out together, to provide the fullest picture yet of Mandela.' Peter Godwin, Observer

The UN's record in peace operations is long, various, distinguished by both accomplishments and failures, and most importantly, innovative. Unfulfilled expectations and escalating violence in Somalia, Rwanda, and Bosnia forced retrenchment upon UN peace operations_but at the same time, a new opportunity to enhance capacities, review strategies, redefine roles, and reaffirm responsibilities has opened up. Here, a dynamic group of leading diplomats, academics, and journalists combines forces with UN policymakers and leaders including current Secretary-General Kofi Annan and former Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali to explore how the international community can improve its practice in negotiating and implementing peace. They look at what works and what doesn't in UN peacemaking and peacekeeping, and then map out alternative futures for UN action in the 21st century.

Arrested in 1962 as South Africa’s apartheid regime intensified its brutal campaign against political opponents, forty-four-year-old lawyer and African National Congress activist Nelson Mandela had no idea that he would spend the next twenty-seven years in jail. During his 10,052 days of incarceration, Mandela wrote hundreds of letters to unyielding prison authorities, fellow activists, government officials, and most memorably, to his wife Winnie and his five children.Now, 255 of these letters, the majority of which were previously unseen, provide the most intimate portrait of Mandela since Long Walk to Freedom. Painstakingly researched, authenticated and catalogued by the Nelson Mandela Foundation, the letters have been drawn from the Foundation’s archive as well as from public and private collections held by the Mandela family and South African government archives.Mandela’s letters are organised chronologically and divided by the four prisons in which he was incarcerated. Each section opens with a short introduction to provide a historical overview of each of these periods and the collection features a foreword by Zamaswazi Dlamini-Mandela.Whether writing about the death of his son Thembi after a request to attend the funeral was ignored, providing unwavering support to his also-imprisoned wife or outlining a human-rights philosophy that resonates today, The Prison Letters of Nelson Mandela reveals the heroism of a man who refused to compromise his moral values in the face of extraordinary human punishment. Ultimately, they confirm Mandela’s position among the most inspiring historical figures of the twentieth century.

Jag har upptäckt hemligheten att när man har bestigit ett högt berg så är det bara för att upptäcka att det finns många er berg att bestiga. Nu har jag satt mig här en stund att vila, och se tillbaka på den långa väg jag gått. Men jag kan bara vila ett ögonblick för med friheten följer ansvar, och jag vågar inte dröja mig kvar, för min långa vandring är ännu inte slut.

Nelson Mandela i Den långa vägen till frihet

År 1994 blev Nelson Mandela det demokratiska Sydafrikas första president. Han bestämde sig redan från början för att bara sitta en mandatperiod. Under hans tid som president blev alla Sydafrikas medborgare lika inför lagen, och grunden lades för att omvandla Sydafrika till en fullt fungerande demokrati, från att ha varit ett land sönderslitet av århundraden av kolonialism och apartheid.

Fortsätt framåt är berättelsen om Mandelas år som Sydafrikas president. Boken bygger på det memoarutkast han påbörjade när han förberedde sig för att lämna presidentposten, men aldrig fick tillfälle att slutföra. Nu har den hyllade syd afrikanska författaren Mandla Langa slutfört uppdraget med hjälp av Mandelas ursprungliga utkast, detaljerade anteckningar som Mandela förde under händelsernas gång, och en stor mängd tidigare okänt arkivmaterial.

Boken är en livfull, ärlig och inspirerande skildring av Mandelas presidentperiod och den nya demokratins födelse. Den berättar den enastående historien om ett land i omvandling, och om de utmaningar som Mandela ställdes inför i förverkligandet av sin vision om ett befriat Sydafrika. Bokens förord är skrivet av Mandelas änka, Graça Machel.
