Die AB se voorganger het \u2018n belangrike rol gespeel in die geskiedenis van ons mense gedurende die twintigste eeu – eerstens wat die herlewing van Afrikaner-nasionalisme n\u00e1 die Eerste W\u00eareldoorlog betref en toe in die politiek van die Afrikaners in die ontstuimige jare wat daarop gevolg het.<\/p>\n

Die AB het \u2018n leidende rol gespeel as intellektuele klankbord in die daarstelling van aparte ontwikkeling. Toe dit duidelik geword het dat aparte ontwikkeling nie \u2019n regverdige oplossing vir ons ingewikkelde probleme sou kon bied nie, het die AB – onder leiding van veral prof De Lange – gehelp om die weg te baan vir \u2019n onderhandelde oplossing – \u2018n oplossing wat die regte en vryhede van alle Suid-Afrikaners kan beskerm.<\/p>\n

Dit is nou 21 jaar sedert die aanvang van ons nuwe grondwetlike demokrasie. Gedurende hierdie tydperk het ons grondwet \u2019n raamwerk daargestel vir relatiewe vrede en vooruitgang. Ons is weer eens \u2018n volwaardige lid van die internasionale gemeenskap; ons kan ons mede-Suid-Afrikaners as gelykes in die o\u00eb kyk; ons ekonomie is drie keer groter as wat dit in 1994 was; en die meeste wit mense het voorspoed beleef – meer so as enige van ons ander gemeenskappe.<\/p>\n

Daar is baie kritici van die besluite wat ons aan die begin van die 1990s geneem het.\u00a0 Sommiges s\u00ea ons moes vasklou aan die ou bedeling. Ander beweer ons kon \u2019n beter ooreenkoms onderhandel. Sommige dink ons kon een of ander vetoreg vir minderhede beding het.<\/p>\n

Laat ek dit duidelik stel:\u00a0 indien ons nie so gou as moontlik – na die ineenstorting van die Sowjet-Unie – \u2018n skikking bereik het nie, sou die balans van magte onverbiddelik – en baie vinnig – teen ons gedraai het. Met elke jaar wat ons langer sou wag sou ons vermo\u00eb om ons kern belange te verseker, verswak- presies wat met Ian Smith in Rhodesi\u00eb gebeur het.<\/p>\n

Om aan die mag van destyds vas te klou was eenvoudig net nie \u2019n opsie nie. Ons sou waarskynlik kon voortgaan om Suid-Afrika vir nog 15 tot 20 jaar onder toenemend moeilike omstandighede te regeer. Ons sou heeltemal ge\u00efsoleerd geraak het. Ons ekonomie sou verlam word.\u00a0 \u2018n Ho\u00eb persentasie van die wit bevolking sou ge\u00ebmmigreer het. Ons jong mans sou die helfte van elke jaar op die grense moes veg of oproerigheid in townships moes onderdruk. Inter-rassige vyandigheid sou toegeneem het tot \u2018n vlak wat \u2019n wedersyds aanvaarbare, onderhandelde oplossing minder en minder moontlik sou maak met elke jaar wat verby gaan.<\/p>\n

Ander wou gehad het dat ons \u2018n wit tuisland \u00earens in die land moes vestig. Daar is en was egter geen plek in Suid-Afrika waar wit mense naastenby \u2018n meerderheid uitmaak nie. Daar was nie \u2018n kans dat wit mense hul gemaklike lewens in ons stede sou prysgee en na verafgele\u00eb gebiede sou trek om \u2018n nuwe staat te stig nie.<\/p>\n

Diegene wat dink dat ons \u2018n vetoreg vir minderhede kon beding, verkeer onder \u2018n totale wanindruk. Sodanige uitkoms sou heeltemal onaanvaarbaar gewees het vir die grootste meerderheid van Suid-Afrikaanse burgers – en die internasionale gemeenskap sou dit ook nooit aanvaar nie.<\/p>\n

Soos dit staan het ons \u2018n Grondwet onderhandel waarin alle partye pynlike kompromie\u00eb moes aangaan.<\/p>\n
