    The killing fields of KZN Local government elections, violence and democracy in 2016 Mary de Haas* [email protected] http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2413-3108/2016/v0n57a456 This article explores the intersections between party interests, democratic accountability and violence in KwaZulu-Natal. It begins with an overview of the legacy of violence in the province before detailing how changes in the African National Congress (ANC) since the 2007 Polokwane conference are inextricably linked to internecine violence and protest action. It focuses on the powerful eThekwini Metro region, including intra-party violence in the Glebelands hostel ward. These events provide a crucial context to the violence preceding the August 2016 local government elections. The article calls for renewed debate about how to counter the failure of local government. In KwaZulu-Natal (KZN), the province dubbed the Glebelands hostel ward. Crucially, it also the ‘killing fields’ in the early 1990s, all post- contextualises the violence that preceded the 1994 elections have been marked by intimidation August 2016 local government elections. and violence.

  • Violence, Autochthony, and Identity Politics in Kwazulu-Natal (South Africa): a Processual Perspective on Local Political Dynamics Mario Krämer
    Violence, Autochthony, and Identity Politics in KwaZulu-Natal (South Africa): A Processual Perspective on Local Political Dynamics Mario Krämer Abstract: “Political violence” is seemingly on the rise again in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. The violence that began in the 1980s and reached a peak in the transition period resurfaced before the local government elections in August 2016. Krämer provides a processual understanding of local dynamics of violence in the eThekwini Municipality and situates the current episode within the historical trajectory of vio- lent conflict. He examines how exclusionary identities get activated in local elec- tions and argues that underlying the violence between supporters of hostile political parties are conflicting forms of autochthonous belonging and contradictory ideas about what constitutes membership in a community. Résumé: La « violence politique » semble à nouveau à la hausse au KwaZulu-Natal, en Afrique du Sud. La violence qui a débuté dans les années 1980 et a culminé pendant la période de transition a refait surface avant les élections locales d’août 2016. Krämer fournit une compréhension processuelle de la dynamique locale de la violence dans la municipalité d’eThekwini et situe l’épisode actuel dans la trajectoire historique du conflit violent. Krämer examine comment les identités d’exclusion s’activent dans les élections locales et fait valoir qu’existe, sous la violence entre les partisans de partis politiques hostiles, des formes contradictoires d’appartenance autochtone et d’idées contraires sur ce qui constitue l’appartenance à une communauté. African Studies Review, Volume 63, Number 3 (September 2020), pp. 540–559 Mario Krämer is a postdoctoral researcher and senior lecturer at the University of Siegen, Germany.

  • Global Adaptation Network (GAN) and Durban Adaptation Charter (DAC) Regional Knowledge Sharing Exchange Visit
    GAN & DAC: Regional Knowledge Sharing Exchange Visit: Southern Africa Global Adaptation Network (GAN) and Durban Adaptation Charter (DAC) Regional Knowledge Sharing Exchange Visit 06 – 08 March 2017 Durban, South Africa GAN & DAC: Regional Knowledge Sharing Exchange Visit: Southern Africa Executive Summary The Global Adaptation Network funded the Durban Adaptation Charter Knowledge Exchange between eThekwini Municipality, Durban and the Mozambican cities of Pemba, Quelimane and Nacala from the 6th – 8th March 2017. The exchange, hosted by Durban, sought to build capacity and extend the partnership between these four cities in order to advance and coordinate climate change action in the region. This second leg of the Exchange followed on from a successful first leg where eThekwini Municipality officials visited Pemba to discuss sea level rise, catchment management and climate governance issues. The focus of the return trip was community-oriented biodiversity planning and water governance approaches, Community Ecosystem-based Adaptation (CEBA), environmentally-sensitive solid waste management systems and renewable energy. At the conclusion of this exchange the cities agreed to cooperate on the development of a climate change funding proposal for submission to international funding organisations. Mayor de Araujo of Quelimane Municipality also extended an invite to Her Worship, Mayor Gumede, to visit these Mozambican cities in support of the development of this proposal. Key outcomes from the exchange included: • Participants agreed to pursue the issue of conservation planning, in particular in the marine environment in Mozambique where there is conflict between tourism, marine resource harvesting and sustainability. • Participants agreed to develop a cooperative approach to support the Mozambican cities’ efforts to establish landfill sites that align with the sustainability principles espoused in eThekwini Municipality’s landfill sites.

The Panel wishes to express its regrets to Ms Joubert. This paragraph has now been corrected. The Panel notes that Ms Joubert resigned from the Sunday Times in part because she did not want to be associated with the narrative being pursued by that publication.

In the name of our shared humanity, our dignity, and our decency, STOP this! Evictions and demolitions, especially at this time, are an attack on all of us. STOP assaulting us. STOP destroying our homes. STOP evicting us. A public and unreserved apology from the mayor of eThekwini for what has happened, and an unambiguous commitment never to do it again, would be something positive. Fines and real consequences for all the bosses, managers, leaders, and others who have led, authorised, or condoned, these inhumane acts, would be something positive. Support for, and solidarity, with the people affected and the shack-dweller movement, Abahlali baseMjondolo, is also needed.
