| Summary, etc | The city of Johannesburg offers insights into urban governance and the interesting interplay between<br/>managing the pressures in a rapidly urbanizing context, with the political imperatives that are enduring challenges. The metropolitan municipality of Johannesburg (hereafter Johannesburg), as it is known<br/>today, represents one of the most diverse cities in the African continent. That urbanization, however,<br/>came up hard against the power of the past. Areas zoned by race had been carved into the landscape,<br/>with natural and manufactured boundaries to keep formerly white areas ‘safe’ from those zoned for<br/>other races. Highways, light industrial plant, rivers and streams, all combined to ensure the Johannesburg<br/>landscape are spatially disfigured, and precisely because it is built into the landscape, the impact of<br/>apartheid has proved remarkably durable. Urban growth is concentrated in Johannesburg’s townships<br/>and much of it is class driven: the middle class (of all races) is increasingly being found in cluster and<br/>complexes in the north Johannesburg, while poor and working-class African and coloured communities in particular are densifying in the south. The racial and spatial divisions of the city continue to pose<br/>fundamental challenges in terms of governance, fiscal management and spatially driven service delivery. |
