There have been a number of recent developments which have triggered our desire to open up a conversation on South Africa's possible 'secondary cities'. The recent release of the National Development Plan by the Presidency has provoked the entire policy and research community to think more carefully about the country's future development trajectory. As the Cities Network, it has motivated us to reflect more deeply on the role that different urban spaces can play in the national space economy. The recently-released National Development Plan describes the human settlement challenge in South Africa: "The landscape has changed since 1994. The Gauteng city-region has reinforced its national dominance and attracted growing migration. The coastal city-regions have performed less well, especially in terms of job creation, largely because the manufacturing industry has failed to gain traction. The performance of smaller cities has been uneven, depending on their dominant industries. Many small towns and rural areas have stagnated or declined, as agriculture and mining have struggled. Parts of the former homelands are changing their economic structure, supported by increased spending from social grants. This is occurring along major transport corridors, in developing tourism areas, and along national borders where trade and transport are growing" (National Planning Commission, 2011) Most of our nine member cities are governed by metropolitan municipalities and that arena has, typically, been the focus of our research papers. However, we have noted an increasing number of enquiries and interest in the subject of 'secondary cities'. This appears to reflect a growing interest in the urban spaces that are not currently considered metropolitan areas, but that appear to be exhibiting strong demographic and economic growth. The recent declaration of Buffalo City and Mangaung as new metropolitan areas, requiring a new form of metropolitan government, has also reawakened interest in the layer of cities that fall just beneath the country's eight existing metropolitan areas. It has made us think, inter alia, about what changes need to occur in a city before it is considered to have evolved into a more complex metropolitan area. This publication attempts to explore the notion of 'secondary cities'. 'Secondary cities', as the literature tells us, play a distinct and fairly specialised role in national life. They often act as catalysts for development in their surrounding regions. They also alleviate demographic pressure from a country's metropolitan areas and, arguably, offer a better quality of life than densely-populated urban conurbations. It may be important for the South African development community to enhance their understanding of these places and the role they could play in the national space economy. This understanding may also lead to better insights about the different types of local government that should govern different spaces. This, in turn, could advance the notion of a 'differentiated approach' to local government in South Africa. This report on South Africa's possible secondary cities is an exploratory one. Its principal aim is to act as a catalyst for debate. We also hope it will stimulate further research and policy work on this 3 Secondary cities in South Africa: The start of a conversation Background report relatively neglected subject in the urban agenda. Given its intent, we would encourage policymakers, researchers and practitioners to view it as a working or discussion paper, and to engage vigorously with its contents. Thus, this report marks what we hope will be the beginnings of a robust debate on secondary cities in South Africa. We've attempted to catalyse that debate by contextualising the discussion, by providing some base information on possible secondary cities, and by posing a few questions. There are, in fact, more questions than answers in this document. We trust that this will stimulate you into exploring the issues raised in this report further. Above all, we hope that this exploration will make us think more carefully about the role of secondary cities in our future development trajectory.

The General Assembly of CICRED, at its 1985 session in Florence, Italy, decided to include a project on "Urbanization and Population Distribution" in the CICRED Inter-Center Cooperative Research Programme. The decision was renewed at the General Assembly of New Delhi in 1989. On the invitation of the Social Survey Research Center of the Pusan National University, the initial meeting of the project was held in Pusan, Korea, from 29 September to 3 October 1989. The meeting was under the guidance of Prof. Alan B. Simmons, who has been assigned by the CICRED Bureau the task of coordinating this collaborative effort. On behalf of the Bureau, I would like to express our sincere gratitude to the Social Survey Research Center and, more particularly, Prof.

The urbanization level increased from 28% in 1993 to 40% in year 2003. As a metropolitan with the third largest population in China, Tianjin city also has made the rapid urban growth under this macro background.

  • Effect of Grootvlei Mine Water on the Blesbokspruit
    THE EFFECT OF GROOTVLEI MINE WATER ON THE BLESBOKSPRUIT by TANJA THORIUS Mini-dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE in ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT in the Faculty of Science at the Rand Afrikaans University Supervisor: Professor JT Harmse July 2004 The Impact of Grootvlei Mine on the Water Quality of the Blesbokspruit i ABSTRACT Gold mining activities are widespread in the Witwatersrand area of South Africa. These have significant influences, both positive and negative, on the socio-economic and bio -physical environments. In the case of South Africa’s river systems and riparian zones, mining and its associated activities have negatively impacted upon these systems. The Blesbokspruit Catchment Area and Grootvlei Mines Limited (hereafter called “Grootvlei”) are located in Gauteng Province of South Africa. The chosen study area is east of the town of Springs in the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality on the East Rand of Gauteng Province. Grootvlei, which has been operating underground mining activities since 1934, is one of the last operational mines in this area. Grootvlei pumps extraneous water from its underground mine workings into the Blesbokspruit, which includes the Blesbokspruit Ramsar site. This pumping ensures that the mine workings are not flooded, which would result in the gold reserves becoming inaccessible and would shortly lead to the closure of Grootvlei. This closure would further affect at least three other marginal gold mines in the area, namely, Springs-Dagga, Droogebult-Wits and Nigel Gold Mine, all which rely on Grootvlei’s pumping to keep their workings dry. Being shallower than Grootvlei, they are currently able to operate without themselves having to pump any extraneous water from their underground workings.

  • Greylingstad Mpumalanga Done by Do
    Archaeological investigations, done at Bakkiesfontein 568 IR, (Dipaliseng Local Municipality) Greylingstad Mpumalanga Done by Domonique-Marie Verkerk BHSC (Heritage and Cultural Tourism), 2011, UP BA Archaeology, 2012, UP Tel: 012 3333931 E-mail: [email protected] Department of Anthropology and Archaeology, University of Pretoria 5 October 2015 Summary Concentration camps were a tactic created by the British to end the South African War (1899- 1902). Many innocent Boer and African families were sent to these camps where they died of diseases, such as, poor conditions and lack of shelters. Boer families were sent to concentration camps in Heidelberg. Africans, on the other hand, were sent to the concentration camp in Greylingstad. A possible location for the African concentration camp in Greylingstad is Bakkiesfontein 568 IR. Unfortunately, there is nothing to show where this camp is as a fire destroyed many of the records. Bakkiesfontein 568 IR was chosen as a possible location for the African concentration camp in Greylingstad because of the old house, stream, stone walls, railway, SR fort and the African cemetery. Bakkiesfontein was surveyed by foot. The aim was to find the location of the concentration camp. Areas where pedestrian surveys were conducted included the house, barn, possible midden, graves, stone walls and stone circle. The pedestrian survey showed that Iron Age communities also lived on the farm. Three test-pits were also conducted. Areas where the test-pits were conducted included the midden, between stone walls and on a slope near a stone wall. The test-pits were not that successful. The artefacts found during the test- pits and surveys include; metal, ceramic pieces and pottery, glass pieces and even plastic.
