Description

Urban Politics After Apartheid offers a deep look into the gendered urban politics of South Africa. This study examines the interactive processes that define urban life in the former townships, conducted twenty years after the end of apartheid. Through extensive, long-term fieldwork, the book explores the relationships and engagement between local politicians and activists. Author Sandrine Gukelberger adds a new historicising perspective to the study of urban governance. By focusing on the political trajectories of ward councillors and activists, this work provides a fresh entry point into the governance arena. It is an essential resource for those studying how local leadership and community activism shape the modern South African urban landscape.
