...Sandinistas blamed the U.S. for pressuring Godoy to drop out, a charge that both he and U.S. officials denied. Of the five opposition parties still in the race, two moderate groups-the Democratic Conservatives and the Popular Social Christians-may also bow out. That would leave only the Sandinistas and three small Marxist parties on the ballot, hardly a balanced choice. Though some Nicaraguans still hope that the government will postpone the elections and woo Godoy and Cruz back into the race, Ortega last week denied any such intentions. "Let it be clear that even if we have...

...that corporations can do more against apartheid by staying and pushing for change from within. While this tactic can be very effective in some situations, it is completely inappropriate for South Africa at this time. Again and again the South African government has demonstrated that it will not bow to pressure on certain key issues. President Bok may believe that if American corporations only educate and improve the living and working conditions for enough Blacks in South Africa then change will evolve, but the South African government has flatly denied the possibility of Blacks ever getting enfranchised. There are educated...
