This book tells the story of three Black men—Z. K. Matthews, Nelson Mandela, and Stephen Biko—who committed their lives to win freedom for all South Africans. Using a sociopsychological retrospective, Juckes interweaves accounts of the lives of these three men with sociopolitical developments to reveal the complex interaction that occurs between social processes and individual actors, revealing how leaders come into being and how their actions influence social developments. Each man's political character captured the demands of the time and used the available resources of his age in the quest for freedom; the pressure—over time—from the activities of these three men and the movements they supported made liberation inevitable.
TIM J. JUCKES was born in Durban, South Africa. He is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia.
