Johannesburg. La fin de l'apartheid : et après ?
Johannesburg, apartheid, Afrique, Cessou Sabine, témoignage
<div><strong>Présentation par l'éditeur :<br />
</strong><br />
Au premier abord, Johannesburg déroute. Une impression de vide domine. Son âme ? Fragmentaire, fondée sur la séparation totale, réussie, achevée et persistante, malgré les enclaves de mixité. <br />
<br />
Quatorze ans après la fin de l'apartheid, la société " arc-en-ciel " appelée de ses vœux par le prix Nobel de la paix Desmond Tutu a-t-elle enfin vu le jour ? Comment gérer l'expansion d'une mégalopole africaine qui a si longtemps vécu sur le mode de la ségrégation entre banlieues riches et blanches et townships noirs miséreux ? Quelles sont aujourd'hui les énergies à l'œuvre dans celle que l'on considère comme l'une des cités les plus dangereuses au monde ?<br />
<br />
Johannesburg, ville neuve, n'a jamais voué de culte particulier au passé. Elle est à présent résolument tournée vers l'avenir. En témoignent les personnalités interviewées dans ce livre - écrivains, architectes, entrepreneurs ou artistes -, Noirs et Blancs... en couleurs. <br />

In Volume 1 of this two-volume publication, the authors review the international literature on urbanisation. They locate urbanisation in broader social transformations, study the role of households in the process of migration and discuss theories of migration. They also provide a survey of the history of urbanisation and planning in Latin America.</div>
</div>
In Volume 2 of this two-volume publication, the authors identify the appropriate planning approaches to urbanisation and their main social implications. Based on an extensive literature study, the issue of planning for urbanisation was investigated and a comprehensive review of the debate on urban land and housing is provided.</div>

<div><b>Abstract from the publisher : </b></div> </div> Reveals how liberal democracy and free-market economics reproduce the inequalities of apartheid in Cape Town, South Africa<br /> <br /> Nearly two decades after the dismantling of apartheid in South Africa, how different does the nation look? In Cape Town, is hardening inequality under conditions of neoliberal globalization actually reproducing the repressive governance of the apartheid era? By exploring issues of urban security and development, Tony Roshan Samara brings to light the features of urban apartheid that increasingly mark not only Cape Town but also the global cities of our day—cities as diverse as Los Angeles, Rio de Janeiro, Paris, and Beijing.<br /> <br /> Cape Town after Apartheid focuses on urban renewal and urban security policies and practices in the city center and townships as this aspiring world-class city actively pursues a neoliberal approach to development. The city’s attempt to escape its past is, however, constrained by crippling inequalities, racial and ethnic tensions, political turmoil, and persistent insecurity. Samara shows how governance in Cape Town remains rooted in the perceived need to control dangerous populations and protect a somewhat fragile and unpopular economic system. In urban areas around the world, where the affluent minority and poor majority live in relative proximity to each other, aggressive security practices and strict governance reflect and reproduce the divided city.<br /> <br /> A critical case for understanding a transnational view of urban governance, especially in highly unequal, majority-poor cities, this closely observed study of postapartheid Cape Town affords valuable insight into how security and governance technologies from the global North combine with local forms to create new approaches to social control in cities across the global South.</div> </div>
