[When he came to power in 1978, Prime Minister P.W. Botha knew that the dream of Verwoerdian apartheid was no longer feasible. The black population explosion, the refusal of three homelands to accept independence, the rise of Marxist rule in Mozambique, the growing despondency among Afrikaner intellectuals, and the emergence of an Afrikaner bourgeoisie—all militated against a literal reading of the apartheid vision (Louw 2004). “We are moving into a changing world, we must adapt otherwise we shall die,” Botha is alleged to have said, though he would deny having uttered these exact words (Lipton 1986, p. 51 quoted in Giliomee 2003, p. 586). Promising a slew of apartheid reforms, the pragmatic Botha met with shrill resistance from verkramptes for whom the means never justified the ends (O'Meara 1996). But given his four-decade-long apprenticeship honing a prodigious managerial acumen, he was unwilling to continue with policies that had ceased to work.]
