Professor Raymond Suttner unpacks his latest column, 'What do we do when erstwhile liberators become “counterrevolutionaries”?'

In former President Thabo Mbeki's, recent letter to ANC Deputy President Paul Mashatile there were copious references to “counter-revolution” and “national democratic revolution”. Many people who read this may have thought this was quaint and old fashioned.

However, I do believe that the Struggle that we were engaged in against the apartheid regime was a revolutionary struggle by which I do not understand simply the use of force, which did become a significant part of the liberation Struggle.
