Nelson Mandela – in his incredible transition from one of the world’s longest-detained political prisoners to iconic statesman – became an exemplary figure of integrity and moral fortitude.In this fascinating essay, Elleke Boehmer traces the Nobel line of inheritance passed from Mandela to Obama, demonstrating how ‘Madiba’ emerged as a skilled orator and master of political theatre, characteristics which Obama would later adopt to great success. Looking beyond Mandela the symbol, it reveals the sophistication of his self-awareness, rhetorical style, political astuteness and strategic willingness to perform the roles required of him to achieve his political aim: freedom and equality in South Africa.A unique insight into a man who became a giant of the international stage, and his enduring legacy.
