Abstract: | Discussion of Mr. P.W. Botha's 'total national strategy'. Conclusion: Much has been achieved in the face of many difficulties, for which Mr. Botha should be given credit; on the other hand, he will have to go a great deal further to begin to meet the increasing aspirations not only of the élites whom he is seeking to co-opt, but also of the broad mass of the people. Sections: Botha's accession to power - Centralization and streamlining - Separate development endorsed - Co-opting business - Contrasting responses - Half-measures. |
