analysis: The text appears to be discussing the international community's efforts to address the issue of apartheid in South Africa, with a focus on political and diplomatic actions. It mentions the adoption of resolutions by the General Assembly, the work of the Special Committee against Apartheid, and the promotion of international solidarity with the anti-apartheid resistance. Given the political nature of the content, it seems likely that the text falls under the categories related to international relations or human rights.
