It draws on a seminal text, Homes Apart, and revisits conclusions drawn in that collection that marked the final phases of urban apartheid. It highlights changes in demography, social as well as economic structure and their differential spatial expression across a range of urban sites in South Africa. The evidence presented in this book points to a very complex set of narratives in urban South Africa and one that cannot be reduced to a singular statement so the conclusions of the various investigations are in many ways open. As urban apartheid represented one clear outcome, its post-apartheid urban legacies varies greatly from city to city. As such this book is a great resource to students and academics focused on urban change in South African cities since the demise of apartheid, and scholars of urban policy-making in South Africa and Southern urbanists generally. 410 0$aUrban Perspectives from the Global South,$x2511-218X 606 $aSociology, Urban 606 $aHuman geography 606 $aUrban Sociology 606 $aHuman Geography 615 0$aSociology, Urban. 615 0$aHuman geography. 615 14$aUrban Sociology. 615 24$aHuman Geography. 676 $a307.760968 702 $aLemon$b Anthony 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484673103321 996 $aSouth African urban change three decades after apartheid$92589690 997 $aUNINA
