dc.description.abstractThis study comprises a projection of Southern Africa's potential for political integration by the year 2000. The analytical model employed is based on the assumption that political integration will be determined by the extent to which the following elements, or building-blocks of the integration process, were present on the subcontinent between roughly 1975 and 1980: population demands, technological development, interdependence, transaction flows, regional institutionalization, attitudinal change, social integration and economic integrationen_US
dc.description.abstractA separate research strategy was employed to determine the level of development of each of the preceding elements. The criteria employed to measure each separate variable is as follows:en_US
dc.description.abstractPopulation demands: literacy, education, internal communication, exposure to mass media, urbanisation, civil and political rightsen_US
dc.description.abstractTechnological development: energy consumption, telephones per thousand residents, average life expectancy, literacy and school enrolment at secondary levelen_US
dc.description.abstractTransaction flows: labour traffic, trade traffic and student trafficen_US
dc.description.abstractInterdependence: trading partner concentration and resource dependenceen_US
dc.description.abstractInstitutionalization: overlapping membership, formal structures, financial support, personnel support and meetingsen_US
dc.description.abstractAttitudinal change: friendly andantoagonistic interactions of the elite groupsen_US
dc.description.abstractSocial integration: language, religion, race and ethnic groupen_US
dc.description.abstractEconomic integration: price differences between goods and servicesen_US
dc.description.abstractIt was found that, with the exception of social integration which has reached a medium level of development, Southern Africa had a low level of development regarding the other elements. By virtue of this, the conclusion was reached that it is highly unlikely that Southern Africa will reach a high or even a medium level of political integration by the year 2000en_US
