Uniting a Divided City

Description:

"Uniting a Divided City is based on an assemblage of empirical data and analysis. It combines a detailed knowledge of the particularities of the Johannesburg context with a broader understanding of how the city fits into international trends and debates. This interdisciplinary work draws on a range of research methods and analytical entry points - from the vantage points of sociology, geography and development studies, a multifaceted lens is provided through which to identify and interrogate what is both specific and more widely relevant about social change and urban governance in Johannesburg."--Jacket.
