Signed: (MARC WILLIAM FLETCHER) Date: iii iv ABSTRACT South African political elites framed the country’s successful bid to host the 2010 FIFA World Cup in terms of nation-building, evoking imagery of South African unity. Yet, a pre-season tournament in 2008 featuring the two glamour soccer clubs of South Africa, Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates, and the global brand of Manchester United, revealed a racially fractured soccer fandom that contradicted these notions of national unity through soccer. -

List of projects in South Africa 2004 – 2013 Companion document to the paper Illuminating the World Cup Effect: Night Lights Evidence from South Africa Gregor Pfeifer ∗ Fabian Wahl † Martyna Marczak ‡ University of Hohenheim University of Hohenheim University of Hohenheim ∗University of Hohenheim, Department of Economics (520B), D-70593 Stuttgart, Germany; E-mail: [email protected]; Phone: +49 711 459 22193. †University of Hohenheim, Department of Economics (520J), D-70593 Stuttgart, Germany; E-mail: [email protected]; Phone: +49 711 459 24405. ‡University of Hohenheim, Department of Economics (520G), D-70593 Stuttgart, Germany; E-mail: [email protected]; Phone: +49 711 459 23823. 1 Overview This list is an attempt to summarize infrastructure projects in South Africa in 2004–2013 using information from distinct websites and publicly available documents. The time span is chosen to cover the period of preparations for the 2010 World Cup as well as time after the event (until 2013 when our data sample in the paper ends). The reason for extending the time span beyond 2010 is that some projects related to the World Cup, that are of interest for our study, started before the World Cup but continued after 2010. The whole list includes 127 projects, divided into 8 categories:1 • Airports • Stadiums • Training stadiums • Water projects • Road projects • Public transport projects • Rail projects • Other transport and logistics projects Among all these projects, 72 are explicitly related to the 2010 World Cup and classified as a treatment in the paper. In the baseline analysis, we consider as treatment those 61 World Cup related projects that have been conducted in nine municipalities with a World Cup venue. -
