Can the white Rhodesians' beliefs about race be seen as myths which justify their position in the social order? And, if so, are these beliefs likely to be changed by discussion or persuasion? J. Clyde Mitchell has arrived recently from Rhodesia, where he spent ten years at the University College of Rhodesia and Nyasaland as Professor of African Studies and Sociology. He describes and illustrates the characteristics of the RhodesiaR ' race myth ' and discusses its implications for the present situation there.
