3 See, for example, Financial Times, 22 June 1978, which reports on a West German survey of Black opinion in South Africa. Though Buthelezi scores higher than Mandela, it must be remembered (a) that this survey not only has all the usual limitations of such methods, but is being conducted for clearly political reasons in a context in which the ANC, a banned organization, is conducting armed struggle against the repressive South African regime; (b) Buthelezi has made skilful use of the symbolism of the ANC in his Inkatha organization; (c) the ANC has non-African sympathy and support.
