Description

This scholarly work examines how British imperial architecture and urban planning shaped racial segregation in Cape Town before apartheid was formally institutionalised. Drawing on previously unexamined archival material, the book reveals the mechanisms through which the British Empire established the foundations for apartheid's later development. It traces how British architects and architectural concepts facilitated white dominance and racial segregation in pre-apartheid Cape Town, following the influence of Garden City Movement founder Ebenezer Howard. Part of the Ashgate Studies in Architecture series published by Routledge, this book provides critical insight into the colonial roots of systematic spatial segregation and exposes the complicity of imperial design in perpetuating inequality.
