Signed: ……………………… ii Abstract This study articulates the perceptions and expectations different stakeholders in sanitation infrastructure upgrades have to determine the implications their contrasting views have towards the success of participatory upgrades. The success of public infrastructure projects, such as sanitation infrastructure upgrades, requires balancing issues relating to technical and financial feasibility as well as social considerations. Community participation is believed to be an effective means to addressing social issues relating to public infrastructure projects and improving project success by including communities in decision-making processes. In South Africa, community participation processes have been mandated for use in large infrastructure projects – particularly when upgrading informal settlements. However, in practice, evidence suggests that, in some instances, the implementation of community participation processes have been reduced to a tick-boxing exercise, providing communities with little to no agency. Research reviewed found that one of the factors contributing to the poor project success is the neglect of participatory processes in projects, as different expectations and motivations held by stakeholders are not addressed. This study involved a review on legislation involving sanitation infrastructure and community participation processes relating to the Upgrading of Informal Settlements Programme (UISP) in particular. The investigation was conducted using the single case study of Project Silvertown, the controversial project that in 2010 was coined by the media as the “toilet war saga” in Cape Town’s Khayelitsha township. The project was implemented in terms of the UISP with the controversy revolving around the installation of 1 316 unenclosed toilets provided by the City of Cape Town. A systems thinking-based framework called Critical Systems Heuristics (CSH) was used to articulate the views of the different stakeholders involved in Project Silvertown. CSH makes use of a set of 12 questions aimed to make explicit the various value judgements upon which different stakeholder groups frame their understanding and beliefs. CSH maps the bigger picture in any given social intervention by not only identifying any conflict or misunderstanding iii between stakeholders, but also examining the influence behind those value judgements held. Documentary resources on Project Silvertown were used to gather secondary data on stakeholder groups and analysed using the CSH framework to structure the data. The key findings in this study revealed the following disjunctions affected the success of the Project Silvertown participatory upgrade, namely: i) Different stakeholder expectations of community participation and decision-making ii) Differing stakeholder visions for project outcomes iii) Poor capacitation of community members iv) Disjunction of community representation by legitimate community leaders v) Disjunctions of UISP policy interpretation The use of the CSH framework proved a valuable tool for unfolding the contrasting perspectives held by stakeholders in a participatory upgrade. As an evaluative tool CSH also helped to assess various project dynamics such as the power and knowledge structures that could negatively influence the overall success of a project. Findings of the conflicts between stakeholders in a given system can contribute towards identifying what stakeholder assumptions ought to be considered and built into planning public infrastructure projects to reduce the likelihood of project failures. iv Table of contents Acknowledgements .......................................................................................................................

  • Politics and Activism in the Water and Sanitation Wars in South Africa
    Journal of Social and Political Psychology jspp.psychopen.eu | 2195-3325 Special Thematic Section on "Rethinking Health and Social Justice Activism in Changing Times" Politics and Activism in the Water and Sanitation Wars in South Africa Brendon R. Barnes* a [a] Department of Psychology, University of Johannesburg, Johannesburg, South Africa. Abstract This paper focuses on the ways in which activism is undermined in the water and sanitation wars in South Africa. The paper extends previous work that has focused on the politics of water and sanitation in South Africa and is based on an analysis of talk between activists and stakeholders in a television debate. It attempts to make two arguments. First, activists who disrupt powerful discourses of active citizenship struggle to highlight water and sanitation injustices without their actions being individualised and party politicised. Second, in an attempt to claim a space for new social movements, activists paradoxically draw on common sense accounts of race, class, geography, dignity and democracy that may limit activism. The implications for water and sanitation activism and future research are discussed. Keywords: social movements, activism, water and sanitation justice, citizenship, transitional justice Journal of Social and Political Psychology, 2018, Vol. 6(2), 543–555, doi:10.5964/jspp.v6i2.917 Received: 2018-01-18.

  • Managing Disorder Jérôme Roos 31 March 2014 When an Egyptian
    Managing Disorder Jérôme Roos 31 March 2014 When an Egyptian judge condemned 529 Muslim Brotherhood supporters to death this week, he underlined in one fell swoop the terrifying reality in which the world finds itself today. The revolutionary euphoria and constituent impulse that shook the global order back in 2011 have long since given way to a re-established state of control. Violent repression of protest and dissent — whether progressive or reactionary — has become the new normal. The radical emancipatory and democratic space that was briefly opened up by recent uprisings is now being slammed shut. What remains are dispersed pockets of resistance under relentless assault by the constituted power. While the mass death sentence of Islamist protesters in Egypt is an exceptionally violent and lethal instance of this process, the army’s counter-revolutionary consolidation appears to be indicative of a more generalized trend that can be felt across the globe. In Turkey, Prime Minister Erdoðan — who back in 2011 criticized Mubarak for his hard- handed repression of the popular uprising — just blocked access to Twitter and YouTube. When a 15-year-old boy, Berkin Elvan, died after spending 9 months in a coma, having been shot in the head by police while getting some bread during the Gezi protests, Erdoðan justified the killing by branding the kid a “terrorist”. In Spain, meanwhile, the right-wing government of Mariano Rajoy is reverting to old-fashioned Francoist tactics to suppress the country’s powerful anti-austerity movement. Riot police once again violently cracked down on a massive demonstration in Madrid last weekend, while authorities are eagerly drawing on the new “Citizens’ Security Law” to prosecute the arrestees, some of whom now face up to 5 years in prison.

I dedicate this work to the 2014 DST facilitators’ cohort. Many thanks are due to these phenomenal students who allowed me to enter their classroom-and their lives-as I completed this study. Without their kindness, knowledge, and just overall unselfish willingness to help, I would have never gained the insight required to write this dissertation. Graeme, in particular, not only got me hooked on rugby, but he assisted me in this endeavor from the very first moment I stepped on campus through the duration of this project. I cannot stress how grateful I am for the working relationship--and now friendship after the fact--that Graeme and I have established. This sentiment of friendship and gratitude also extends to Mia and Tayla and Pieter and Luniko, to Andre, Sisipha, and Felix. You are all such amazing human beings, such incredible teachers, and my life is definitely better because I now share it with all of you.

  • Rethinking Health and Social Justice Activism in Changing Times"
    Journal of Social and Political Psychology jspp.psychopen.eu | 2195-3325 Special Thematic Section on "Rethinking Health and Social Justice Activism in Changing Times" Activism in Changing Times: Reinvigorating Community Psychology – Introduction to the Special Thematic Section Flora Cornish* a, Catherine Campbell b, Cristián Montenegro c [a] Department of Methodology, London School of Economics & Political Science, London, United Kingdom. [b] Department of Psychological and Behavioural Science, London School of Economics & Political Science, London, United Kingdom. [c] Millennium Institute for Research on Depression and Personality, Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, Santiago, Chile. Abstract The field of community psychology has for decades concerned itself with the theory and practice of bottom-up emancipatory efforts to tackle health inequalities and other social injustices, often assuming a consensus around values of equality, tolerance and human rights. However, recent global socio-political shifts, particularly the individualisation of neoliberalism and the rise of intolerant, exclusionary politics, have shaken those assumptions, creating what many perceive to be exceptionally hostile conditions for emancipatory activism. This special thematic section brings together a diverse series of articles which address how health and social justice activists are responding to contemporary conditions, in the interest of re-invigorating community psychology’s contribution to emancipatory efforts. The current article introduces our collective conceptualisation of these ‘changing times’, the challenges they pose, and four openings offered by the collection of articles. Firstly, against the backdrop of neoliberal hegemony, these articles argue for a return to community psychology’s core principle of relationality. Secondly, articles identify novel sources of disruptive community agency, in the resistant identities of nonconformist groups, and new, technologically-mediated communicative relations.

  • From Land Reform to Poo Protesting: Some Theological Reflections on the Ecological Repercussions of Economic Inequality
    Scriptura 113 (2014:1), pp. 1-16 http://scriptura.journals.ac.za FROM LAND REFORM TO POO PROTESTING: SOME THEOLOGICAL REFLECTIONS ON THE ECOLOGICAL REPERCUSSIONS OF ECONOMIC INEQUALITY Ernst Conradie Religion and Theology University of the Western Cape Abstract This article consists of three distinct parts. The first part offers a number of observations on land as a lens to interpret economic inequalities in South Africa. The second part extrapolates such observations to explore the ecological dimensions of urban land reform with specific reference to the ongoing service delivery protests over sanitation (dubbed ‘poo protesting’) as reported in the media and more specifically in the Cape Times. The third part offers some theological and ethical reflections on the human need for sanitation as a form of internal critique of the engagement with such service delivery protests by the so-called ‘Concerned Citizens Group’ in which the author was involved. Key Words: Docetism; Ecology; Land Reform; Poo Protests; Sanitation Introduction In the second semester of 2013, I presented a postgraduate module in Ethics at the University of the Western Cape together with Professor Charles Amjad-Ali on the theme of “Land as a lens to interpret economic inequalities in South Africa”. We read together a number of books on the themes of land reform and economic inequality. In this contribution I will first offer a number of observations emerging from our limited engagement with such literature (as indicated in the references). I will then extrapolate such observations
