Today, the city is going through an unprecedented development phase, initiated by new territorial dynamics resulting from urban policies, resident practices and market trends. While Johannesburg aims to become a ?World Class African City?, as a part of managing its growth it is essential to offer an accurate image of its strengths and weaknesses. The issue of urban resilience has become central to the discourse on cities and calls for light to be shed on the evolutions that have shaped and continue to shape the city of Johannesburg. In this light, we focus on major urban phenomena including: The spatial evolution of the city where densification is not always synonymous with urbanity; Increasing spatial differentiations according to population and housing; Increasingly fragmented and extensive spatial structuring. In this publication, special attention has been given to the compilation of former and recent data. These data, depending on objective geographic elements, show how ?various cities? exist within the city. Overcoming the limitations of the data was the main difficulty. Urban evolutions are rapid, but existing data are difficult to access and are often out of date or localised, as part of unsuitable divisions. Various comments have been written to shed light on the maps and facilitate their reading. The objective of this work is to create a coherent set of maps so as to offer a homogeneous vision of the city and urbanisation processes underlining it. 606 $aUrban Studies 606 $aSouth Africa 606 $aJohannesburg 606 $aurban policies 606 $aurban development 606 $atransport network 610 $aSouth Africa 610 $aJohannesburg 610 $aurban policies 610 $aurban development 610 $atransport network 615 4$aUrban Studies 615 4$aSouth Africa 615 4$aJohannesburg 615 4$aurban policies 615 4$aurban development 615 4$atransport network 700 $aLévy$b Karen$01331559 801 0$bFR-FrMaCLE 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910576798503321 996 $aSmall Atlas of Johannesburg$93040430 997 $aUNINA
