Compound, location, township, komboni… – ślady dziedzictwa kolonializmu w strukturze przestrzennej współczesnych miast Afryki Południowej

Abstract

The article concerns the remains of the colonial heritage in the cities of sub-Saharan Africa. Although most African countries have been independent for several decades ago, in many cities and towns the general spatial structure is the same as in colonial times. This applies to cities and towns in the south part of Africa that were shaped by the apartheid system. The article discusses this problem on the example of the capital of Namibia, Windhoek.
