Abstract: | General Hertzog was a political thinker who gave much thought to the problems associated with the peaceful development of a multiracial subcontinent. He distinguished between three main groups of South African peoples: Whites, Coloureds and Blacks. His political outlook was as follows: White survival depended on White national unity; the Coloured population had always been a separate group socially, but economically they would be an integral part of the White state; concerning the Bantu peoples the General was a supporter of separate nationhoods. At the end the author gives an analysis of modern developments to show how far these are in conformity with Hertzog's concepts. To be continued in: S. Afr. Int., 4 (1973/74), 2. |
