by S. A. Cilliers
What has been the motive force towards a Republic in South Africa? Is it Afrikaaner nostalgia for the old Boer Republics, 'the last shot in the Boer
War '? Or is it a realistic adjustment to the need for unity in a divided nation? Mr. Cilliers, a South African lawyer, considers the historical and political trends that will culminate in the inauguration of the Republic on May 31.
