Given the political tensions that characterized the relations among the erstwhile adversaries, policies were developed almost as if it was an entirely new entity with a view to eradicating race-based policies and introducing new ones that were premised on equality, supremacy of the constitution and civil oversight. As a consequence, all defence-related policies were introduced including the Defence White Paper, Defence Act and the 2015 Defence Review.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book uses South Africa’s 2015 Defence Review as a point of reference to analyze various aspects of the military’s governance framework.
