A Country at War with Itself is a penetrating exploration of South Africa’s crime problem. Getting behind the statistics to offer a sober and sobering account of the scale of the problem and its evolution, it describes how government has sometimes sought to deal with the crisis and sometimes sought to deny its existence. Analysing the weaknesses of the police and criminal justice system, it sets out a programme that would take us from ‘fighting crime’ to ‘fighting criminals’.

In 1917, the USSR became the first society in history to officially emancipate women. But seven decades later, the heroic tolerance of Soviet women—over 90 percent of whom are employed full-time—is showing signs of wear. From her wide experience and travels in Russia, Francine du Plessix Gray brings us the voices of women doctors, professors, intellectuals, dissidents, party workers, journalists, and factory workers who talk about their lives with amazing candour and frequent anger. Despite perestroika, women continue to suffer a startling variety of social injustices.
