Law, Spatiality and the Tshwane Urban Space by Isolde de Villiers Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree LLD (Doctor Legum) In the Faculty of Law University of Pretoria Supervisor: Prof K. van Marle July 2017 © University of Pretoria Acknowledgement This thesis is the product of various networks of social relationships. To the enabling and supportive relations I would like to offer a sincere thank you. Firstly to my supervisor, Karin van Marle, who has introduced me to Jurisprudence and academia. Thank you for your patience, guidance, collegiality and support, but above all for opening up different time-spaces for thinking, contesting, learning and growing. Thank you for showing me the way, it has been an interesting and rewarding journey thus far. Thank you to the department of Jurisprudence at the University of Pretoria for being my academic home, for allowing me the space and time to work on this project, and for various conferences and research seminars at which I could explore and test the ideas in this work. Thank you to Danie Brand for a sharp editing eye. To my parents, Pieter and Joey and my siblings Rhene, Milada and JacquesJ, thank you for your interest in my project, your love and understanding. Thank you to various friends for your belief in me and for supplying welcome distractions. To Oloff, thank you for the ideas and for providing an office with a view during several stretches of research leave. Thank you to Manisha and Nthombi and the other inhabitants of Schubart Park for showing me the layered narratives of your former home. © University of Pretoria Summary This project focuses on the relationship between law and space. In the South African context, apartheid can be understood as a legal system that regulated material space. This system produced social relations and conditions that remain, despite the abolition of the apartheid legal system. Spatial justice captures the relationship between law and space. Looking at law from the perspective of spatial justice provides a vocabulary for explaining how spaces (as social relations) remain after laws have gone. Following feminist geographer Doreen Massey, I call for law to recognise relational space. The city of Tshwane’s lawscape provides me with three instantiations through which to investigate the spatial justice discourse. The first chapter considers the case of Schubart Park, a high-rise complex in the inner city of Tshwane. An estimated 700 families were evicted from the building complex in 2011. The constitutional court, one year later, ordered the re-instatement of the inhabitants, but the buildings still stand empty. The second chapter focuses on the city of Tshwane street names case. During 2012, a number of street names across the city were changed. The constitutional court, in 2016, handed down a judgment that brings to the surface the notions of belonging in the city. The third chapter traces the grand narrative of the municipality by analysing the mayoral speeches of the past five years and the Tshwane 2055 plan. This project hopes to contribute to the vocabulary of spatiality and spatial justice from a post-apartheid South African perspective and in particular from the vantage point of the administrative capital. © University of Pretoria Declaration of originality I, Isolde de Villiers with student number 23222795, understand what plagiarism is and I am aware of the University’s policy in this regard.

  • Malibongwe Let Us Praise the Women Portraits by Gisele Wulfsohn

    Malibongwe Let us praise the women Portraits by Gisele Wulfsohn In 1990, inspired by major political changes in our country, I decided to embark on a long-term photographic project – black and white portraits of some of the South African women who had contributed to this process. In a country previously dominated by men in power, it seemed to me that the tireless dedication and hard work of our mothers, grandmothers, sisters and daughters needed to be highlighted. I did not only want to include more visible women, but also those who silently worked so hard to make it possible for change to happen. Due to lack of funding and time constraints, including raising my twin boys and more recently being diagnosed with cancer, the portraits have been taken intermittently. Many of the women photographed in exile have now returned to South Africa and a few have passed on. While the project is not yet complete, this selection of mainly high profile women represents a history and inspiration to us all. These were not only tireless activists, but daughters, mothers, wives and friends. Gisele Wulfsohn 2006 ADELAIDE TAMBO 1929 – 2007 Adelaide Frances Tsukudu was born in 1929. She was 10 years old when she had her first brush with apartheid and politics. A police officer in Top Location in Vereenigng had been killed. Adelaide’s 82-year-old grandfather was amongst those arrested. As the men were led to the town square, the old man collapsed. Adelaide sat with him until he came round and witnessed the young policeman calling her beloved grandfather “boy”.
  • Economic Ascendance Is/As Moral Rightness: the New Religious Political Right in Post-Apartheid South Africa Part

    Economic Ascendance Is/As Moral Rightness: the New Religious Political Right in Post-Apartheid South Africa Part

    Economic Ascendance is/as Moral Rightness: The New Religious Political Right in Post-apartheid South Africa Part One: The Political Introduction If one were to go by the paucity of academic scholarship on the broad New Right in the post-apartheid South African context, one would not be remiss for thinking that the country is immune from this global phenomenon. I say broad because there is some academic scholarship that deals only with the existence of right wing organisations at the end of the apartheid era (du Toit 1991, Grobbelaar et al. 1989, Schönteich 2004, Schönteich and Boshoff 2003, van Rooyen 1994, Visser 2007, Welsh 1988, 1989,1995, Zille 1988). In this older context, this work focuses on a number of white Right organisations, including their ideas of nationalism, the role of Christianity in their ideologies, as well as their opposition to reform in South Africa, especially the significance of the idea of partition in these organisations. Helen Zille’s list, for example, includes the Herstigte Nasionale Party, Conservative Party, Afrikaner People’s Guard, South African Bureau of Racial Affairs (SABRA), Society of Orange Workers, Forum for the Future, Stallard Foundation, Afrikaner Resistance Movement (AWB), and the White Liberation Movement (BBB). There is also literature that deals with New Right ideology and its impact on South African education in the transition era by drawing on the broader literature on how the New Right was using education as a primary battleground globally (Fataar 1997, Kallaway 1989). Moreover, another narrow and newer literature exists that continues the focus on primarily extreme right organisations in South Africa that have found resonance in the global context of the rise of the so-called Alternative Right that rejects mainstream conservatism.

An independent study dissertation, submitted to the university of derby in partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of bachelor of science. Single honours in third world development. Course code: L9L3. March 2010 Relocation, relocation, marginalisation: development, and grassroots struggles to transform politics in urban south africa. Abstract 2 Society in post-apartheid South Africa is highly polarised. Although racial apartheid ended in 1994, this paper shows that an economic and spatial apartheid is still in place. The country has been neoliberalised, and this paper concludes that a virtual democracy is in place, where the poor are excluded from decision-making. Urban shack-dwellers are constantly under threat of being evicted (often illegally) and relocated to peri-urban areas, where they become further marginalised. The further away from city centres they live, the less employment and education opportunities are available to them. The African National Congress (ANC) government claims to be moving the shack-dwellers to decent housing with better facilities, although there have been claims that these houses are of poor quality, and that they are in marginal areas where transport is far too expensive for residents to commute to the city for employment. The ANC is promoting ‘World Class Cities’, trying to facilitate economic growth by encouraging investment. They are spending much on the 2010 World Cup, and have been using the language of ‘slum elimination’.

    Budget Speech

    TENTH CITY OF TSHWANE BUDGET VOTE BY THE EXECUTIVE MAYOR OF TSHWANE, DR GWEN RAMOKGOPA, COUNCIL CHAMBER, 20 MAY 2010, AT 10:00 Theme: Reaffirming the Freedom Charter 55 years on The Speaker, Cllr Smangaliso Mkhatshwa; Chief Whip of Council, Cllr Terence Mashego; Members of the Mayoral Committee; Leaders of Political Parties; Councillors, in particular newly elected Cllr Marobane of Ward 74; Acting City Manager and Officials of the City of Tshwane; Residents of Tshwane; Members of the Media; Honoured Guests; Ladies and Gentlemen; Dumelang! As we count down the 21 days to the FIFA spectacular, we also say "Feel it, it is here" – Afrika ke nako! It is my single honour to present to this house, the Council meeting of the City of Tshwane, the Integrated Development Plan, the Medium-term Expenditure Framework and the budget for the 2010/11 financial year. We meet today fresh from hosting a successful 11th Gauteng Provincial Conference of the ANC under the theme "Unity, service and renewal – a 1 clarion call for action towards the ANC Centenary". While we fully recognise and respect the multiparty character of our democracy, we as the ANC remain humbled by the trust bestowed on our movement by the overwhelming majority of South Africans, especially those who in the words of Simón Bolívar are "ever hopeful of rescue"' from poverty and underdevelopment. It is in the context of this trust that we will continue to foster the unity of all South Africans behind our historic mission to liberate all our people, black and white, men and women, from all forms of oppression, discrimination and exploitation.

    1 the Functions of Public Art in Post-Apartheid South

    THE FUNCTIONS OF PUBLIC ART IN POST-APARTHEID SOUTH AFRICA Annette Sophia Pretorius A research report submitted to the Faculty of Arts, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Johannesburg, 2006 1 ABSTRACT The aim of this research report is to explore the extent to which public art in post- apartheid, democratic South Africa may contribute both to urban regeneration and nation building as well as the extent to which contemporary African monumental public art could reflect African heritage and traditions (Nettleton 2003:3). Another issue that is explored is the role of patronage in determining the function of public art in post-apartheid South Africa. Case studies in the form of two examples of post-apartheid public, namely the Freedom Park and the Constitution Hill projects art are used to explore the functions of public art in South Africa. In summary this research report therefore analyses: • The nature and function of public art-historical issues; • The practical issues affecting the production of public art in post-apartheid South Africa; • The socio-political factors that mitigate for or against the ability of public art to function effectively in the post-apartheid South African context; and • How these functions feed into the broader issues of making a contribution in a demographically complex, post-apartheid South Africa. 2 Declaration I declare that this research report is my own unaided work. It is submitted for the degree of Master of Arts in the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. It has not been submitted before for any other degree or examination in any other university.
