    ORIGINAL ARTICLES CONCLUSION HISTORY OF MEDICINE TIle issue of psychologists being granted the RTF is in the process of serious consideration in South Africa at present. Nguments for and against the RTF are complex and varied, HOSPITALS IN CAPE TOWN aDd are both theoretical and professional. There are also indications that the debate is, at least partially, driven by a DURING THE ANGLO-BOER WAR latent political (and even economic) agenda. There is support arid opposition for psychologists being granted the RTF both JC de Villiers fn)m within the profession of psychology and from outside. wherever psychologists and other health care professions stand on this debate, the importance of this issue cannot be ignored The choice of Cape Town as the site for the base hospitals or denied. In the process of rethinking the future health care during the Anglo-Boer War was for many reasons a logical system and service in South Africa, including mental health one.

  • Phase 1 Archaeological Assessment of the Somerset Hospital Precinct, Green Point, Cape Town
    PHASE 1 ARCHAEOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT OF THE SOMERSET HOSPITAL PRECINCT, GREEN POINT, CAPE TOWN ERF 1559 AND PORTION OF ERF 1056 GREEN POINT Prepared for NM Associates May 2006 Prepared by Tim Hart Archaeology Contracts Office Department of Archaeology University of Cape Town Private Bag Rondebosch 7701 Phone (021) 650 2357 Fax (021) 650 2352 Email [email protected] 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Archaeology Contracts Office (ACO) of the University of Cape Town was appointed by NM Associates to undertake a Phase 1 Archaeological Assessment of the Somerset Hospital Precinct in Green Point, Cape Town. The study was necessitated by the declaration of an area in Green Point as a special conservation area due to the possible presence of human remains. The area which is the subject of this study lies in the peripheral zone of the declared conservation area. Findings: • Somerset Hospital Precinct is a historically significant area containing grade 2 and grade 3 buildings. Besides being the site of the country’s oldest surviving hospital, parts of the site were used as a South African War POW camp and military barrack. • Exhaustive trial excavations (some 110 individual tests) throughout the study area have revealed that soils are shallow with hard Malmsbury shale being present in most instances less that 1000 mm below surface. • Archaeological material in the form of a deeply buried old wall footing was found at precinct 3h in a single trial excavation. • Human remains consisting of a lone phalange and rib were found in one trial excavation behind the Medical Museum. They are considered to be out of context and in all likelihood relate to specimens disposed of by the hospital in the distant past.

  • What Is Transitional Housing?
    1 Contents Evictions and Displacement in Cape Town 6 There is a growing crisis in the city. Hundreds of poor and working class families living in the inner city are facing rent hikes, evictions and displacement. This is a systemic crises that has been going on for over a decade without recognition or adequate support for families from the City of Cape Town. A Property Bubble is Driving Exclusive Growth 10 These evictions and displacement are a result of skyrocketing house prices and speculation in the property market. Existing affordable housing stock can’t meet demand and no new affordable housing is being built. This is driving segregation and inequality. The City of Cape Town’s primary policy for managing urban growth is densification and Transport Orientated Development (TOD). While, this is necessary to create a more efficient, compact and sustainable city, policies to mitigate against the predictable effects on poor and working class families have not been adopted. Relocation Camps in Cape Town 18 As of 2017, the City of Cape Town offers little support to residents who will become homeless because of eviction, except a one way ticket to a relocation camp on the periphery of the city. How did we end up building camps in our cities in a democratic era? We present testimony from Helena Dirkse, Susana Jones, Xolelwa Ndinisa and Nkosimayibongwe Jonga who live in Blikkiesdorp and Wolwerivier. The Injustice of Relocation Camps 29 Good law led to a clear obligation to provide temporary emergency accommodation but was very poorly implemented. We explore how relocation camps on the periphery isolate residents from community networks and affect their ability to access good services and income.

  • THE PALACES of MEMORY a Reconstruction of District One, Cape Town, Before and After the Group Areas Act Michael Ian Weeder
    THE PALACES OF MEMORY A reconstruction of District One, Cape Town, before and after the Group Areas Act Michael Ian Weeder A mini-thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Public and Visual History, University of the Western Cape, May 2006. DECLARATION I, Michael Ian Weeder, declare that ‘The Palaces of Memory: A reconstruction of District One, Cape Town, before and after the Group Areas Act’ is my own work, that it has not been submitted for any degree or examination in any other university, and that all the sources I have used or quoted have been indicated and acknowledged by complete references. Michael Ian Weeder 10 May 2006 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The promise of this dissertation is located in those distant winter nights of 1980 when a handful of young people met in a study group under the tutelage of Marcus Solomons. This group consisted of Zelda Holtzman, Bonita Bennett, Vernon Petersen, Trevor Oosterwyk and myself. Mitchells Plain would become an assembly point for intellectual and activist energy for those of us who had grown up in the working class areas of Heideveld, Bonteheuwel and, as in my case, Elsies River. Perhaps our parents had been lured to this ‘city by the sea’ by the promotional ads depicting colourful houses with low fences suggesting the possibility of community. The burgeoning liberation consciousness prevailing at that time at the universities of the Western Cape and of Cape Town was expressed in community based activities. These included the student school boycotts of 1980 and support for the consumer boycotts associated with the worker strikes at Fattis & Monis and the Maitland Meat Abattoirs: endless mass meetings, pamphleteering and pre-meeting meetings.
