Published in 1977, Afrikaner, Waarheen? ("Afrikaner, Whither?") is a pivotal socio-political text by one of South Africa's most prominent nationalist historians, Dr. G.D. Scholtz. Written during a time of mounting domestic and international pressure, the book offers a sober, intellectual analysis of the future and political destiny of the Afrikaner people. Scholtz warns against complacency and challenges his contemporaries to reconsider their global positions.
