VL - 24 IS - 3 U2 - w39 N2 - This paper critically evaluates efforts to mitigate the adverse effects of pollution on residential communities that are located next to polluting chemical industries in the South Durban Basin area, in the city of Durban, South Africa. The economic agenda ignored socio-environmental imperatives as poor residential communities and polluting chemical industries were juxtaposed, which made the area prone to environmental and health hazards. Empirical research is conducted focusing on the relations among industry, the people, housing, health and the neighbourhood built environment. The paper notes that efforts to create healthier livable city neighbourhoods in Africa, and South Africa in particular, are hampered by the superimposition of industrial capitalism over social and environmental aspects of sustainable development. In this context, the paper argues marginalised neighbourhoods need to proactively articulate their environmental concerns in ways that foster the cooperation and remedial action of other stakeholders of urban governance especially the state and private sector.

VL - 65 IS - 3 U2 - w39 N2 - On 1 May 1989, anthropologist and anti-apartheid activist David Webster was gunned down outside his home in Troyeville, Johannesburg, South Africa. Since his untimely death, Webster has been publicly remembered in numerous ways. This paper looks at some of these memorials, in particular a boundary wall erected at the site of his assassination and a portrait made in a Troyeville park, which was named after him. In the process, it focuses on the ways in which certain self-organizing publics have chosen to remember and acknowledge both Webster's life, and his appalling death. The events held to launch both of these modest memorials became commemorations in themselves. The significance of the public and private memories of the individuals and groups responsible for erecting these memorials is also examined. The paper explores ways in which memory is facilitated in the production of memorials and the ways in which memories of this particular man have been inscribed into the public domain.

VL - 7 IS - 2 U2 - w39 N2 - While changes in leadership appear to affect the conflictual or cooperative character of government-dissident relations, and the study of leadership has been a cornerstone of social science from Weber to Neustadt, studies of civil conflict leave the issue of leadership largely unexplored. This article represents a first effort to develop a theory of leadership change in the unique context of violent intrastate politics. Specifically, with respect to civil conflict, how do changes in leadership affect the choices made by dissident groups and the governments they confront? Can changes in leadership help explain the often unpredicted conflictual and cooperative directions that civil conflicts take? Using formal modeling, this article specifies conditions under which leadership changes may affect the course of a civil conflict. Under certain conditions, changes in leadership will signal a desire for cooperation and prompt opposing leaders to reorient their own domestic audiences in order to reciprocate. This argument is empirically examined through case-study plausibility probes (Case study 1: Government leadership change and the end of apartheid in South Africa; Case study 2: Rebel leadership change and the end of the civil war in Angola). Policy implications include an improved understanding of the mechanisms directing political dissent and dissident choices and, in so doing, pointing to means of resolving or preventing large-scale political violence within states.

VL - 65 IS - 3 U2 - w39 N2 - The historiography of South Africa's apartheid-era bantustans has commonly focused on their repressive role. New approaches to this history have suggested that some undertook educational initiatives that broke with the dominant apartheid model. Bophutatswana's Primary Education Upgrading Programme (PEUP) was such an initiative. This article examines the actors, origins, aims and practices of the programme, as well as its strengths and weaknesses. Using documentary evidence on the project, interviews with its initiators and participants in the programme, as well as assessments by contemporaries at the time, it argues that the project involved a contradictory alliance of conservative bantustan leaders and Christian liberals. The project drew on progressivist, child-centred ideas borrowed from Europe and the United Kingdom but these were encased within the broader ethnic apartheid project and served a legitimatory purpose. PEUP included both innovative aspects within the context of Bantu Education but also continuities with its broader ethnic purposes. Miserly budgets, bantustan politics, and limitations specific to progressivism ultimately undermined the success of the PEUP. Nonetheless, the project survived in memories of teachers.

VL - 7 IS - 2 U2 - w39 N2 - In spring 2012 a group consisting of Forces Arm‚es de la R‚publique D‚mocratique du Congo defectors in North and South Kivu mutinied and created a new rebellion group called M23 (Movement du 23 Mars). The fighting between the M23 and the government troops resulted in a new wave of refugees, partly consisting of Congolese Rwandophone Tutsis, whose interests the M23 claimed to voice. Yet little is known about how the people whose interests the M23 claimed to represent and protect perceived the armed movement's claims. Indeed, there are many actors that talk about refugee situations and needs, from rebel movement to NGO - refugees are spoken 'about' and 'for', with their own voices are shrouded in silence. Based on original field data collected from August 2012 to February 2013, this article analyzes the images of the M23 among Congolese Rwandophone refugees population in Rwanda. Examining their perceptions is particularly interesting in that the plight of the refugees and the issue of refugee return occupy a central position in M23 discourse. The article demonstrates an ambiguous perceptions of the M23, often articulated in terms of "they are the only ones we have," strongly grounded in feelings of discrimination as citizens of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The article shows that rather than wholehearted support for the M23, the interviews reflected a wish for nonmilitary solutions to the conflict. Notes, ref., sum.

While important to the Maha Sabha, this move brought strong opposition from many quarters. Hindu reformers aimed to promote a "monolithic Hinduism" and recreate it. However, given the heterogeneity of South African Hindus, who were divided by class, caste, language, region of origin, and the presence of Christian and Muslim Indians, many critical voices feared that teaching religion at school would foster divisions within the "Indian community", which was considered anathema when it was perceived as necessary to unite against the racist policies of the white minority apartheid government. The deep-seated fears that were exposed by this debate reveal interesting insights about the multifaceted nature of Indian identity and Hindu identity in South Africa. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

VL - 56 IS - 1 U2 - w39 N2 - The city of Guangzhou, China, hosts a diverse and growing population of foreign Christians. The religious needs of investors and professionals have been accommodated through government approval of a nondenominational church for foreigners. By contrast, African Pentecostal churches operate out of anonymous buildings under informal and fragile agreements with law-enforcement officers. The marginality of the churches is mirrored by the daily lives of the church-goers: Many are undocumented immigrants who restrain their movements to avoid police interception. In contrast to these experiences, the churches present alternative geographies where the migrants take center stage. First, Africans are given responsibility for evangelizing the Gospel, as Europeans are seen to have abandoned their mission. Second, China is presented as a pivotal battlefield for Christianity. And finally, Guangzhou is heralded for its potential to deliver divine promises of prosperity. This geographical imagery assigns meaning to the migration experience, but also reinforces ethnic isolation. The analysis is based on in-depth interviews, participant observation, and video recordings of sermons in a Pentecostal church in Guangzhou with a predominately Nigerian congregation.

VL - 44 IS - 2 U2 - w39 N2 - This paper analyzes the logic of the Eritrean State's repression of religious identities and institutions from a historical and transnational perspective. It argues that contemporary religious repression expresses cultural, political, and generational conflicts related to the internal dynamics of Eritrea's postrevolutionary transition, the transnational configuration of the nation-State, and larger preoccupations with the pressures of globalization. A key proposition is that repression of religion is related to both the modernist secularism of the nationalist regime and the ways in which human rights discourse intersects simultaneously with northern interventionism and transnational diaspora opposition to the Eritrean regime. Analyzing the Eritrean case with respect to contemporary critical scholarship on the tensions and contradictions inherent in secularism and human rights discourse highlights how their emancipatory potentials can be co-opted by regimes of power.

VL - 24 U2 - w39 N2 - Against the backdrop of the need to improve accessibility of services and infrastructural facilities for urban residents in Nigeria, this study examined the accessibility of services and facilities in newly constructed public housing estates in urban centres in Ogun State, Southwest Nigeria. The study was based on observation and on a structured questionnaire through which data were collected from 452 respondents in nine public housing estates constructed between 2003 and 2010. The author found that although the majority of households in the housing estates have good access to human waste disposal systems, accessibility of refuse bins, treated water, electricity, and public transport services is poor, as is access to educational, shopping, recreational, healthcare, drainage, and other vital facilities. More emphasis is given to the production of dwelling units than to accessibility of basic services and facilities for residents in public housing schemes in the study area. The paper suggests that to improve the quality of public housing and the living standard of residents, policy is required to compel public housing developers to provide basic services and facilities in housing schemes in Nigerian cities.

VL - 65 IS - 3 U2 - w39 N2 - This paper examines the relationship between white liberal students and black students in the Black Consciousness-aligned South African Students' Organization (SASO), which was officially launched in July 1969 at the University of the North, Turfloop. It explores the often fraught personal relationships between young leaders, but also points out their commonalities: a search for ideas, resonances they felt with international struggles for justice, and the unique and distinctive history that characterized South Africa during this period. In South Africa in the early 1970s activists elaborated the radical ideas of the 1960s, and as international movements for social justice lost their momentum in other countries, opposition to State power resurfaced in South Africa. The paper points to the personal transformations in white student leaders as they sought to accommodate the Black Consciousness challenge and respond in constructive ways. It also points to the regional histories of radicalism, focusing first on the Cape (the Mafeje affair of 1968), secondly on the Northern Transvaal (Stellenbosch as a source of progressive politics) and finally on Durban (the so-called 'Durban moment', which describes the confluence of intellectual discourses and practical projects in the city in the early 1970s, which signalled a shift in the regional importance of student activism from the Cape to Durban).

VL - 24 IS - 3 U2 - w39 N2 - The concept of evidence-based policy making has risen to prominence internationally. This paper briefly traces the history and ideological paradigms associated with evidence-based policy making. Then the international experience in respect of evidence-based policy making is discussed. Finally, the paper turns to an evaluation of the degree to which evidence-based policy making has been entrenched in the development of provincial growth and development strategies in South Africa. It is found that the concept of evidence-based policy making is not well developed at provincial levels and that in many cases it is narrowed down to the use of data. Inhibiting factors at provincial government level include the reality that research is seldom institutionalised, the relationship between policy making and research is seldom understood, academic research is viewed as not being relevant to the policy-making process, there is a lack of in-house research capacity and funding resulting in poor quality, research brings conflicting results which are difficult to interpret, there are concerns around research authenticity and legitimacy, concerns around the quality of research conducted in-house, and an overall lack of strategic thinking about research at provincial level. A range of barriers at research institutions were also identified and include the fact that the formal way in which academic research is published and disseminated is not always "friendly" to policy makers, researchers view academic research and policy making as a linear process, not all provinces have universities, research used in these strategies is mainly orientated around the discipline of economics, the fact that universities are accountable to national government and not provincial government, and limited links between researchers and policy makers. Aspects such as an entrenched research culture, an acknowledgment of the importance of research in policy making, the utilisation of international and national research institutions, the ability of researchers to understand the policy-making process, and the availability of a research agenda for provinces were mentioned as reasons contributing to evidence-based policy making. In conclusion, the paper argues that space should be created to evaluate provincially based research findings, and partnerships between universities and provincial planning units are crucial.

VL - 65 U2 - w39 N2 - The region around Great Zimbabwe was a theatre of considerable human traffic between c.17501850. The period coincided with the disintegration of the Rozvi 'empire', which resulted in the formation of dynasties that came to dominate the Karanga cluster. This process was still commonplace in the late nineteenth century and a few European visitors found a number of its prime role players still at work. Very few of them lived amongst the actors to become a part of the drama itself. The German expedition leader Carl Mauch (18371875), however, lived in the region in 18711872. In 1969, the National Archives of Rhodesia published his journals and diaries in English translation. These covered the period of his travels in the Transvaal and Zimbabwe between 1869 and 1872 and have attracted the attention of historians. The present paper offers a re-interpretation of Mauch's record of African society and politics around Great Zimbabwe. It argues that it must be appreciated in the wider context of its production, chiefly that his locations were determined on the basis of faulty readings of his geometric instruments and his unorthodox orthography of people and place names, while his account vacillated from fact to fiction depending on his mood or relations with the people around him. Drawing on this reassessment, the paper reconsiders the various historiographical interpretations made of Mauch's work in the history of the Karanga. Notes, ref., sum.

However, there are signs that Congo Basin forests are under increasing pressure from a variety of sources, including mineral extraction, road development, agribusiness, and biofuels, in addition to subsistence agricultural expansion and charcoal collection. Congo Basin countries are now at a crossroad -- they are not yet locked into a development path that will necessarily come at high cost to forests. They need to find new ways of development that can simultaneously respond to the dual challenge of developing local economies and reducing poverty while limiting the negative impact of growth on the region's natural capital, and forests in particular. They can define a new path toward "forest-friendly" growth. The question is how to match economic change with smart measures and policy choices so that Congo Basin countries sustain and benefit from their extraordinary natural assets over the long term -- in other words how to "leapfrog" the traditional dip in forest cover usually observed in the forest transition curve. The report Deforestation Trends in the Congo Basin: Reconciling economic growth and forest protection is the output of a two-year exercise implemented by the World Bank at the request of the COMIFAC (Regional Commission in charge of Forestry in Central Africa) and the highly-forested countries in the Congo Basin (namely Cameroon, Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of Congo Gabon, Equatorial Guinea and Republic of Congo). The study is informed by economic modeling complemented with sectoral analysis, as well as interactive simulations and workshop discussions. This study on Deforestation Trends in the Congo Basin: Reconciling economic growth and forest protection analyzes the current and future pressures exerted by different sectors of the economy on Congo Basin forests, and highlights policy options to limit deforestation while pursuing inclusive, green growth. Emerging environmental finance mechanisms, such as reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD+) under the climate change negotiations, may provide additional resources to help countries protect their forests. But there are already a number of "no-regret" actions that countries can take to grow along a sustainable development path SN - 0-8213-9778-8 (electronic bk) AV - Elektronisch document Y2 - 2014/09/26/ M3 - 381376044 L3 - http://www.asclibrary.nl/docs/381376044.pdf ER - TY - BOOK ID - 3894 T1 - La d‚colonisation de l'Afrique revisit‚e : la responsabilit‚ de l'Europe A1 - Misk‚,Ahmed baba Y1 - 2014/// N1 - Met noten KW - decolonization KW - economic recession KW - Mauritania KW - Subsaharan Africa RP - NOT IN FILE EP - 175 CY - Paris PB - Karthala U2 - w39 SN - 978-2-8111-1178-6 AV - AFRIKA 46690 Y2 - 2014/09/26/ M3 - 377403342 ER - TY - JOUR ID - 3968 T1 - Introduction: Africa and China: new engagements, new research A1 - Monson,Jamie A1 - Rupp,Stephanie Y1 - 2013/// KW - Africa KW - China KW - international economic relations KW - international relations KW - social conditions RP - NOT IN FILE SP - 21 EP - 44 JA - African Studies Review: (2013), vol.56, no.1, p.21-44. VL - 56 IS - 1 U2 - w39 N2 - The articles brought together in this ASR Forum were first presented at the fifty-second Annual Meeting of the African Studies Association (ASA) in 2009. Although the articles have changed substantially since that ASA meeting, their primary intention remains the same: to provide a close-up and dynamic look - particularly from historical and ethnographic perspectives - at the various forces that constitute interrelations between Chinese and Africans. Rather than focusing at the national level, the authors aim to sharpen the view of ChinaAfrica relations by moving their analysis to the community and individual levels. The contributors have therefore looked at interactions that take place in marketplaces (Nina Sylvanus on women traders inTogo); in the social spaces of work (Jamie Monson on railway workers' memories of the construction of the Tazara Railway in Tanzania and Zambia); in households affected by power outages (Stephanie Rupp on Ghana); in Pentecostal African congregations in southern China (Heidi stb› Haugen); and among Chinese of different generations in South Africa (Yoon Jung Park). This article gives an introduction to the theme and the contributions. There is a conclusion by Julia C. Strauss (p. 155-170).

VL - 65 IS - 3 U2 - w39 N2 - For a book-length account of the rise of the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) in South Africa, the author examined events at the huge Anglo-American complex at Vaal Reefs Gold Mine in the period leading up to the miners' strike of 1987, focusing on the role of local leader Oliver Sokanyile. He interviewed Sokanyile for two days in Umtata in 1995. Although Sokanyile never achieved a national reputation, he was an important early local actor in the early days of the NUM at Vaal Reefs. When the NUM arrived in 1982, Sokanyile joined. He was elected as Western Transvaal regional chairman at the first NUM National Congress in Klerksdorp. In 1985, when the union rank and file took control after the 1984 strike, Sokanyile was demoted to treasurer. Thenceforth, nonetheless, until he was fired after the 1987 strike, Sokanyile, a shrewd strategist, remained one of the most prominent union leaders at Vaal Reefs. Younger union leaders, who knew him as Bra Soks, spoke of him with tremendous respect. His story provides a window into the early years of the NUM at the local level and perhaps speaks to some pressing issues facing the NUM at the moment. Notes, ref., sum.

VL - 44 IS - 2 U2 - w39 N2 - The point of departure for this article is the particular role of Christian movements in Madagascar's most recent political crisis. During the coup d'‚tat in March 2009, ritual specialists from the Christian revival movement Fifohazana were called on to carry out an exorcism to cleanse the presidential palace of evil forces. This incident not only shows the significance of Christian revival movements within the Malagasy political landscape and society in general, but also indicates how Malagasy politics is imagined in spiritual terms. With its recurrent efforts to restore the nation-State, Malagasy national politics is impossible to understand without taking into account how thoroughly the Malagasy political imagination is infused with the cosmology and ontologies of power. This article explores the ambivalent relationships between the various Christian movements and national politics in the light of history as well as through the recent transmutations of power, showing how Fifohazana have provided a site for the (re)production of the contemporary political imagination.

VL - 24 IS - 3 U2 - w39 N2 - The South African housing research environment is commonly known for its application of the case study approach as a preferred research method. Even the evaluation and assessment of low-income housing developments, to a large degree, are being done through several case studies. However, longer-term assessment or longitudinal studies are virtually absent from this fairly large body of research on low-income housing in South Africa. Although this paper does not deviate from the case study approach, the difference lies in its intent to demonstrate through the housing outcomes of two low-income housing projects (laissez-faire self-help and aided self-help which used a contractor-driven approach) the value and significance of long-term evaluation or longitudinal studies in housing research. Essentially, the paper argues that the limitations associated with one-off case studies and to a large extent, the general absence of longitudinal studies in housing research, lies in the domination of political and economic frameworks. Therefore, the paper showcases the limitations with regard to the interpretation and methods in one-off case studies as opposed to our findings based on longitudinal surveys. Bibliogr., note, sum.

VL - 7 IS - 2 U2 - w39 N2 - The Boko Haram terrorist group's philosophy and activities have been subjected to different interpretations among the Nigerian populace. Such interpretations follow traditional lines of ethnic, regional, cultural, and religious cleavages in Nigeria. Some perceive it as war by Muslims against Christians, some as a sponsored conspiracy against the Muslim North, and others interpret it as the Northern war against the emergence of President Jonathan from the south-south geopolitical zone. A few regard it as a generic name for criminal gangs in Northern Nigeria. While overwhelming opinions in the south tilt toward a scorched-earth policy to counter Boko Haram, much of the north favors dialogue. One of the implications of these responses is the widening of already existing cleavages in Nigerian society, thereby further undermining efforts at building unity and coexistence among Nigeria's varying nationalities.

VL - 65 IS - 3 U2 - w39 N2 - The Mori-language newspaper 'Te Pipiwharauroa' vigorously supported the British side during the South African War (18991902). With a British policy that the conflict was to be a 'white man's war', Mori were officially omitted from serving as soldiers in the New Zealand contingents to South Africa. For Mori who sought to engage with the mainstream Pkeh (European) society in a meaningful way, the exclusion demonstrated that full citizenship had not yet been attained, but supporting the war allowed some degree of participation and acknowledgement. However, a number of other elements also contributed to the paper's pro-war stance. Two of the leading commentators were Rweti Khere, who edited the paper on behalf of the Anglican Church, and pirana Ngata, the leader of an activist group that sought to reform and advance Mori society. This essay examines 'Te Pipiwharauroa's' reporting of the war, and explores how Khere and Ngata's schooling, tribal loyalties to church and State, notions of race, and their reformist agenda all influenced their interpretation of the war, an imperial event of international interest, to a local Mori audience.

VL - 24 U2 - w39 N2 - This article examines the changing geography of hotels in South Africa during the period 19902010 as part of the country's expanding tourism economy. The analysis confirms the importance of several locational influences, which have been isolated in existing literature, in particular the significance of spatial patterns of market demand related to international leisure travel, domestic business tourism, and of the hosting of mega-events. Since 1990, the South African hotel industry has adjusted to new market demands related to the vibrancy of international tourism growth as well as an expansion of domestic tourism, including a new black leisure and business tourism market. By 2010, the hotel industry and its spatial distribution reflects the enormous changes which have taken place in the South African tourism sector since the country became a democracy. The transformed geography of the hotel industry is a response to changing demands associated with South Africa's rise as an emerging international leisure and business tourism destination, including for regional visitors from sub-Saharan Africa, the expansion of domestic business tourism, and the shifting domestic leisure tourism market, which incorporates an increasing share of black South African tourists.

U2 - w39 T3 - African Technology Policy Studies Network RESEARCH PAPER ; 4 N2 - Both long and short term changes in climate, disproportionately affect regions in both the semi-arid and arid parts of the globe and the more humid tropics. As smallholder farmers have been staying in these areas and that the climate variability has been affecting them, farmers through experimentation over time, have developed different traditional technologies in order to cope with the climate change vulnerability. In the case study areas of Lushoto and Mpwapwa districts, little has been done in tracking indigenous adaptation strategies developed to address impacts of climate variability on food security and health of subsistence farmers. This paper therefore provides a highlight of the existing indigenous and other related technologies that farmers in the respective districts in Tanzania are employing to counteract to the impacts of climate change and climate variability. Data were collected through key informants interviews, focus group discussions and indepth interviews using a structured questionnaire that was administered to 400 household heads in eight villages from two agro-ecological zones namely humid (Lushoto district) and semi-arid (Mpwapwa district) zones. In this paper, both short and long term adaptation strategies developed by different rural communities are elucidated; policy recommendations for building climate change resilience at local and national levels in Tanzania are proposed. Based on the findings from this study a framework to support policy decisions in crop/livestock production and human health systems in Tanzania is recommended AV - Elektronisch document Y2 - 2014/09/23/ M3 - 38133015X L3 - http://www.atpsnet.org/Files/rps4.pdf ER - TY - JOUR ID - 3974 T1 - On the fringe of the economy: migrant street traders in Durban A1 - Sidzatane,Ndumiso Justice A1 - Maharaj,Pranitha Y1 - 2013/// KW - market vendors KW - migrants KW - South Africa KW - urban economy RP - NOT IN FILE SP - 373 EP - 387 JA - Urban Forum: (2013), vol.24, no.3, p.373-387. VL - 24 IS - 3 U2 - w39 N2 - The number of migrants working on the streets of cities throughout South Africa has increased tremendously over the past few years. This study draws on qualitative data to understand the experiences of migrant street traders in Durban, South Africa. The qualitative data for the study come from in-depth interviews with local and migrant street traders. Migrant street traders are attracted to Durban because of the economic opportunities that the city offers as well as the lower crime rate than other cities. The findings suggest that migrant street traders make an economic contribution towards the development of the city. Migrants create employment by hiring locals to assist them in their businesses. Some tension exists between local and migrant street traders because of fear of competition. Crime is a concern because it impacts negatively on their businesses. Other challenges experienced by the migrant traders include the harsh treatment by the police and lack of support for informal traders by the municipality. More emphasis should be placed on providing a supportive environment for street trading in Durban. Bibliogr., sum.

VL - 24 U2 - w39 N2 - This paper explores gendered patterns of access to and utilization of land by urban farmers in Eldoret (Kenya). It shows that the urban farmers established entitlement over farming spaces mainly through purchase, social connections, and informal use of land around their dwellings. Owing partly to social norms and cultural practices, and partly to their better economic status, it was mostly the men who had greater entitlement to farming spaces in male-headed households; but female household heads also accessed land in their own right, although they accessed land to a limited extent and their holdings were generally smaller than mens. However, despite high incidences of non-ownership of land among them, married women seemed to enjoy considerable access and use rights over household land for urban farming, but such rights were more limited for other land uses such as housing. Female household heads enjoyed greater control (compared to married women) over the use of household land holdings for whatever uses. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

It suggests that in this context representations of China's so-called 'New Scramble for Africa' are troublesome, namely because they tend to silence the role of Togolese women traders as producers and as central historical and economic subjects in the making of a postcolonial commodity chain for printed African textiles. In so doing the article questions standard economic theories of global market forces, debunks stereotypes regarding the Chinese advance in West African markets, and challenges assumptions about the vulnerability of African societies.

VL - 24 IS - 3 U2 - w39 N2 - This paper argues that neighbourhood change in Hillbrow (Johannesburg, South Africa) is not concomitant with the linear processes of urban decline and economic resurgence. Instead, neighbourhood change is shaped by situated histories, politics and economics, in addition to the activities of diverse local actors. It also argues that despite severe physical decay, a history of being redlined and limited public sector support for the provision of public services, Hillbrow remains a resilient port-of-entry neighbourhood to Johannesburg for many residents who desire to engage in local and transnational economies. Current debates on urban land markets, therefore, necessitate an awareness of the roles that port-of-entry neighbourhoods facilitate in (mega)cities, and alternative urban planning responses to conventional regeneration strategies that are based on liberal market rationalities alone.

VL - 56 IS - 1 U2 - w39 N2 - Increasing numbers of Chinese migrants have arrived in southern Africa over the past two decades. Perceptions of and reactions to the Chinese, however, vary from country to country and within countries. This article, based on several years of field and survey research, examines perceptions of Chinese in South Africa and Lesotho. The author argues that in addition to the global context, national political and economic realities, history, and memory shape local perceptions of China and the Chinese people who now reside in these spaces. States and other political actors play a key role in constructions of foreigners. Competition, whether real or perceived, is also important in shaping negative attitudes toward migrants. However, personal interactions and memories can serve as mitigating factors, even in the face of negative news of China or Chinese activities. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum. in English and French.
