Description
Summary:Former State President F W de Klerk, an alumnus of Potchefstroom, delivered the seventh lecture in a series bearing his name last year in October. Some of the other lectures in the series were published in PER (2004(2), 2005(1), 2009(2). We are proud to publish Mr de Klerk's presentation in this issue as an oratio in which he stated that "the Constitution is the indispensable basis of our national unity and our best and abiding hope for continued freedom, prosperity and stability," but simultaneously felt constrained to identify seven threats to which the Constitution was exposed.
