Abstract: | Bophuthatswana is to become independent on December 6, 1977, as a republic under an executive president. In this article an enquire is made into the nature of the political system of Bophuthatswana. Some brief observations are made regarding the structures currently performing the political functions as well als the governmental functions. The conclusion is that the course of the political system will be determined by the relative force of the centrifugal effects (by economic forces) versus the centripetal effect (by ethnic-psychic forces).
