註釋

Apart from providing some basic background data on Namibia, this booklet by two right-wing US scholars is primarily concerned with Namibia and SWAPO in the context of the Cold War. Its main assertions are that a SWAPO victory would weaken the strategic position of Western powers in the South Atlantic and that Namibia might become a Soviet "client". In their assessment of SWAPO, which closely follows the South African propaganda line, the authors maintain that white communists were instrumental in launching the movement, that the leaders of SWAPO are "poorly educated and unsophisticated" and that SWAPO faces opposition from non-Ovambo population groups. They conclude that a Namibia led by DTA would be the best solution for Western interests, but that its chances - "unfortunately" - are not good. (Eriksen/Moorsom 1989).
