Description

Vernacular Regeneration offers a critical examination of urban transformation in inner-city Johannesburg, challenging conventional narratives of regeneration through rigorous qualitative and ethnographic research. This book from Routledge explores how low-income housing provision and private security expansion reshape urban spaces, interrogating neoliberal urbanism, gentrification, and the privatisation of public space. By re-evaluating dated concepts in Critical Urban Studies against new evidence from Johannesburg, the work provides an alternative, multi-layered account of urban change and renewal. Essential reading for scholars, policymakers and practitioners interested in understanding how cities evolve, who benefits from regeneration projects, and the complex relationship between housing, security and social equity in contemporary African cities.

Key Features

Vernacular Regeneration combines qualitative and ethnographic evidence from Johannesburg to challenge established urban studies frameworks.

The book explores low-income housing provision as a key driver of urban transformation and renewal in inner-city areas.

Examines private security expansion and revanchist policing practices within the context of neoliberal urbanism and gentrification.

Published by Routledge, this academic work interrogates the privatisation of public space and its effects on urban communities.

Provides critical analysis relevant to scholars, urban planners and policymakers studying regeneration, social housing and cities.
