This is a study of conflict resolution which concentrates on two particular cases, Northern Ireland and southern Africa, where conflict has been due to colonial domination and settlement of colonialists on the land of indigenous peoples. It brings together views from journalists, politicians and radicals from all sides, and analyzes the learning process involved in conflict resolution, the skill of negotiation, and the concepts of compromise and surrender.

Südafrika am Ende der vierziger Jahre des 20. Jahrhunderts: Eine Burenfamilie entschließt sich, eine deutsche Kriegswaise zu adoptieren. Freudig wird das blonde, blauäugige kleine Mädchen in die Familie aufgenommen. Als sich herausstellt, dass Sara Jüdin ist, entzieht ihr der Familienvater, ganz Patriarch und Mitglied der nationalistischen Apartheidregierung, seine Liebe. Als Studentin schließt sich Sara dem Widerstand gegen das Apartheidregime an. Sie führt damit auch ihre in der Tradition verhaftete Familie zu einer zaghaften Auseinandersetzung mit dem politischen System Südafrikas.

A child of a Jewish family fleeing Nazi-Germany and settling in apartheid South Africa in the 1930s, Ruth Weiss� journalistic career starts in Johannesburg of the 1950s. In 1968 banned from her home country, and then also from Rhodesia for her critical investigative journalism, she starts reporting from Lusaka, London and Cologne on virtually all issues which affect the newly independent African countries. Peasants and national leaders in southern Africa � Ruth Weiss met them all, travelling through Africa at a time when it was neither usual for a woman to do so, nor to report for economic media as she did. Her writing gained her the friendship of diverse and interesting people. In this book she offers us glimpses into some of her many long-nurtured friendships, with Kenneth Kaunda or Nadine Gordimer and many others. Her life-long quest for tolerance and understanding of different cultures shines through the many personalized stories which her astute eye and pen reveals in this book. As she put it, one never sheds the cultural vest donned at birth, but this should never stop one learning about and accepting other cultures.
