- An earlier version of this article was presented to the Conference of the National Association for Soviet and East European Studies at Cambridge in March 1981. I am grateful for comments made by participants and by colleagues at Manchester. The paper offers an Africanist's perspective on a problem that is usually approached mainly from the Soviet side.
