  • Vote 06 : Social Development
    Vote 6: Social Development VOTE 6 DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT Infrastructure to be appropriated by Vote R44 469 000 Responsible MEC MEC for Social Development, Agriculture and Rural Development Administering department Department of Social Development Accounting officer Head of Department 1. STRATEGIC OVERVIEW OF INFRASTRUCTURE PROGRAMME Strategic overview The Department of Social Development’s infrastructure programme continues to be underpinned by the principle of providing accessible developmental services to Gauteng communities in need. The 2012/13 financial year was marked by the demerger from the Department of Health and the re-establishment of Social Development as a separate department, which will enable it to provide a unique contribution towards the attainment of the Province’s developmental goals. For the 2013 MTEF term, the department’s infrastructure plans are focussed on providing support to the achievement of Provincial Outcome’s 6 and 7: • Outcome 6: Sustainable human settlements and improved quality of life; and • Outcome 7: Responsive, accountable, efficient and effective local government. The department achieved substantial success with the completion of outstanding elements of the Prioritised Townships Programme and was able to give more attention to the development and implementation of plans for the upgrade and refurbishment of the network of residential childcare facilities and local and regional service offices. Significant acquisitions for the year included the two former Schools of Industry in Lesedi Local Municipality, Heidelberg which are in need of extensive rehabilitation works and upgrading that would enable the accommodation of females and children with special needs/disabilities. A new direction for the programme now requires attention to the needs identified in the rural nodes, the planning for which will be conducted during the 2013/14 financial year to ensure readiness for implementation in the 2014/15 financial year.

  • Challenging the Politics of Xenophobia in Khutsong, South Africa
    “We are Gauteng People”: Challenging the Politics of Xenophobia in Khutsong, South Africa Joshua D. Kirshner Geography Department, Rhodes University, Grahamstown, South Africa; [email protected] Abstract: This article seeks to shed light on the May 2008 violence against foreign Africans living in South Africa, and the issue of xenophobia more broadly, by examining the case of Khutsong, a poor township on the edge of Johannesburg that did not experience xenophobic attacks. Arguing against prevailing explanations that link xenophobia with poverty and deprivation, this study examines the opposition to xenophobia that developed in Khutsong. It highlights the centrality of a community-based organization, the Merafong Demarcation Forum (MDF), in halting the spread of violence. In its recent struggle against municipal demarcation, the MDF nurtured a collective sense of place that granted primacy to provincial boundaries while downplaying ethnic and national divisions. The article argues for the need to examine local social struggles and their intersections with broader political-economic trends when accounting for the presence or absence of violent xenophobia. Keywords: xenophobia, South Africa, migration, urban rights, municipal demarcation, social inclusion Introduction In May 2008, formal and informal settlements in the poorer parts of large South African cities were wracked by xenophobic violence that left more than 60 people dead and many thousands displaced and homeless (Crush et al 2008; Everatt 2009). Many lost all they owned, including the houses and shacks they lived in. The attacks against foreign Africans living in the country deeply shocked the international community and many South Africans themselves. Several accounts of the events of May 2008 stressed a link between poverty and violence towards foreign migrants, who were seen to be encroaching on locals’ already limited resources.

  • Die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Kiesstelsel - ‟N Kritiese Ontleding En Alternatiewe
    Die Suid-Afrikaanse nasionale kiesstelsel - ‟n Kritiese ontleding en alternatiewe PJ GROENEWALD Studentenommer: 10247696 Proefskrif voorgelê vir die graad Philosophiae Doctor in Politieke Studies aan die Potchefstroomkampus van die Noordwes-Universiteit Promotor: Prof A Duvenhage April 2013 OPSOMMING Die Republiek van Suid-Afrika het in 1994 ʼn nuwe grondwetlike bedeling betree. As deel van hierdie nuwe grondwetlike bedeling is ʼn nuwe kiesstelsel, naamlik die geslotelys- proporsioneel verteenwoordigende kiesstelsel aanvaar. Hierdie kiesstelsel is aanvaar vir verkiesings op nasionale vlak van verteenwoordigers vir die Nasionale Vergadering en hou bepaalde voor- en nadele in. Sommige politieke wetenskaplikes, politieke partye en meningsvormers is van mening dat hierdie kiesstelsel meebring dat daar gebrekkige kontak is tussen die verteenwoordigers in die Nasionale Vergadering (parlement) en die kiesers. Die kritici is ook van mening dat partyleiers te veel mag binne hierdie kiesstelsel verkry deurdat die partye die kandidate op kandidaatlyste aanwys. In verkiesings stem kiesers vir bepaalde politieke partye en het dus nie ʼn keuse ten opsigte van wie hulle verteenwoordigers is nie. Die gevolg is dat Suid-Afrika aan die verteenwoordigende aspek van demokrasie voldoen, maar in gebreke bly wat betref verantwoording deur verteenwoordigers aan die kiesers. Die legitimiteit van die parlement word ook hierdeur aangetas. Die doel van hierdie studie is om die Suid-Afrikaanse kiesstelsel te ontleed en die funksionering daarvan op nasionale vlak te ondersoek. In die ontleding word bepaal in watter mate die Suid-Afrikaanse kiesstelsel aan die kriteria voldoen wat gestel word vir ʼn kiesstelsel om legitimiteit aan die parlement en ʼn volhoubaar verteenwoordigende demokrasie en verantwoordbare regering op die langtermyn in Suid-Afrika te verseker.
