Informal settlements often emerge, due to rapid urbanisation or failure of urban systems, with negative resultant effects. Such settlements are viewed as a blight to the beauty and order of modern cities, attracting demolition threats from local authorities. Despite the use of force through demolitions and evictions, a number of these settlements have grown to a point where many have attracted upgrading initiatives rather than demolition. Hence, they have become permanent features of the vast majority of cities in the Global South. This study poses the question: How do these settlements transcend serious threats to their existence and still consolidate and grow? The study found that the answer lies in their adaptive resistance capacity. As settlements resist eviction, they also adapt rules from formal systems, in order to minimise their negative image. As a result, with time, conditions improve within the settlements. The study used Mindolo North informal settlement in the city of Kitwe as a case study to examine mechanisms through which informal settlements emerge, consolidate and grow.
由于快速城市化或城市系统的失败,非正式住区经常出现,并产生负面影响。这样的定居点被视为对现代城市的美丽和秩序的破坏,吸引了地方当局的拆除威胁。尽管通过拆除和驱逐使用了武力,但这些定居点中的一些已经发展到一个地步,许多定居点吸引了升级倡议,而不是拆除。因此,它们已成为全球南方绝大多数城市的永久特征。这项研究提出了一个问题:这些定居点如何超越对其存在的严重威胁,并仍然巩固和发展?研究发现,答案在于它们的适应性抵抗能力。由于定居点抵制驱逐,他们也调整了正式制度的规则,以尽量减少他们的负面形象。结果,随着时间的推移,定居点内的条件有所改善。该研究以Kitwe市Mindolo North非正式住区为案例研究,考察了非正式住区产生、巩固和发展的机制。

Customary system as ‘constraint’ or ‘enabler’ to peri-urban land development: Case of Kisumu city, Kenya 习惯制度作为城郊土地开发的“约束”或“推动者”:肯尼亚基苏木市的案例

Scholarly research on land delivery processes and land tenure dynamics in the context of accelerated urbanization and massive rural-urban land use conversion in sub-Saharan African cities remains limited, especially in Kenya. Kisumu city, Kenya’s third largest urban agglomeration, is currently experiencing spontaneous growth and uncontrolled outward expansions of urban development from the urban centre. This is taking place in the peri-urban areas and rural hinterland, where urban-based actors, under the pressure and anticipation of urbanization, undertake land transactions, land tenure conversions, and land development. Making use of three case studies that represent contrasting phases of settlement formation (incipient, intermediate, and consolidated), this article attempts to provide knowledge, particularly on the relationship between the land delivery processes, land tenure dynamics, and the role of various actors involved in the context of land development. The results indicate that the current trend with regard to landholding in the case study areas was a gradual shift from community control to individualisation. There is a need to integrate both customary and public authority’s efforts towards orderly urban development. This study thus advocates for partnerships between the municipal authority and neo-customary/customary actors and, where appropriate, uses their creativity in solving problems to adapt municipal by-laws and procedures.
在撒哈拉以南非洲城市加速城市化和大规模城乡土地利用转换的背景下,关于土地交付过程和土地权属动态的学术研究仍然有限,特别是在肯尼亚。基苏木市是肯尼亚第三大城市群,目前正经历着城市发展从城市中心自发增长和不受控制的向外扩张。这种情况发生在城市周边地区和农村腹地,在那里,城市行动者在城市化的压力和预期下进行土地交易、土地权属转换和土地开发。本文通过三个不同阶段的案例研究(初期、中期和巩固阶段),试图提供知识,特别是关于土地交付过程、土地所有权动态以及土地开发背景下各种行动者的作用之间的关系。结果表明,目前案例研究地区的土地占有趋势是逐渐从社区控制转向个性化控制。有必要将习惯当局和公共当局的努力结合起来,以实现有秩序的城市发展。因此,本研究提倡市政当局与新习惯/习惯行为者之间建立伙伴关系,并酌情利用他们的创造力来解决问题,以调整市政章程和程序。

At its 2016 National Conference, the South African Local Government Association (SALGA) resolved “to assist municipalities to facilitate spatial transformation and inclusive economic growth through the adoption of efficient approaches to urban land acquisition and release” (SALGA, 2016). At the 2018 National Member’s Assembly, SALGA made 8 resolutions that are a direct response to the long-outstanding urban land reform question that the country has been battling to address (SALGA, 2018). SALGA’s proposals on urban land governance and management approaches will enable municipalities to proactively negotiate better development outcomes.
在2016年全国会议上,南非地方政府协会(SALGA)决定“通过采取有效的城市土地征用和释放方法,帮助市政当局促进空间转型和包容性经济增长”(SALGA,2016)。在2018年全国议员大会上,SALGA做出了8项决议,直接回应了该国一直在努力解决的长期悬而未决的城市土地改革问题(SALGA,2018)。SALGA关于城市土地治理和管理方法的提案将使市政当局能够积极协商更好的发展成果。

Investment by private land developer companies and postcolonial urban growth in Ruwa (Zimbabwe), 1986-2015 私人土地开发公司投资与津巴布韦鲁瓦(Ruwa)后殖民时期的城市增长,1986-2015

This article qualitatively analyses the role of private land developer companies’ investment in postcolonial Zimbabwe’s urban development, with special reference to Ruwa Town. This sprawling town is outstanding for involving private land developers in its growth and expansion. All postcolonial established towns had emerged out of Government’s direct investment through the Growth Point policy. By contrast, Ruwa was peculiar, because it developed from a public-private partnership approach. The article argues that, in the absence of State financial capacity in the postcolonial era, developer companies played a crucial role in infrastructure development and facilitation of public amenities. Although the companies were important in spearheading the growth of the town, they sometimes failed to meet certain standards of quality in urban infrastructure development required by town planning authorities. Despite this shortcoming, the article finds that the companies were essentially the most appropriate vehicles of urban development in times of economic crisis in the country.
本文以鲁瓦镇为例,定性分析了私人土地开发商投资在后殖民时期津巴布韦城市发展中的作用。这个幅员辽阔的小镇以吸引私人土地开发商参与其发展和扩张而闻名。所有后殖民时期建立的城镇都是通过增长点政策从政府的直接投资中产生的。相比之下,Ruwa则与众不同,因为它是从公私合作的方式发展起来的。文章认为,在后殖民时代缺乏国家财政能力的情况下,开发商公司在基础设施开发和公共设施便利化方面发挥了至关重要的作用。尽管这些公司在引领城市发展方面发挥着重要作用,但它们有时未能达到城市规划部门要求的城市基础设施发展的某些质量标准。尽管存在这一缺陷,但文章发现,在该国经济危机时期,这些公司基本上是城市发展的最合适工具。

This article explores how universities can contribute to the economy of the area within which they are situated, focusing on the University of the Free State QwaQwa campus. This topic was investigated by analysing the local economy within which the QwaQwa campus is located, a spatial analysis of the campus itself, and interviews with local business owners. First, the article demonstrates how an analysis of the local economy could assist in aligning the university offerings with the dynamics of the local area. It specifically argues for a focus on agricultural and wider commerce-related course offerings. Secondly, an argument is made for leasing or developing the vacant land on campus for non-university-related functions such as middle-income housing or a lowto medium-fee private school. The purpose of such an initiative would be to cross-subsidize the development costs of expanding and improving the QwaQwa campus. Thirdly, through interviews with local business owners, various arguments are made for how the university could better engage with local businesses. These ranged from providing training, disseminating research, increased procurement, and making space for local businesses on campus. Through these arguments, a narrative shows that part of being an engaged university is being aware of, and responding to the needs of the economy within which a campus is located.

Social sustainability is a significant field of research in post-apartheid South Africa, given the challenges and inequalities faced, evidenced in urban landscapes where millions reside in informal settlements and informal backyard rental accommodation. This article investigates the informal backyard rental phenomenon in South Africa through a social sustainability lens, focusing on a case study in Bridgton and Bongolethu, Oudtshoorn. Qualitative and quantitative research findings unveil several features in support of social sustainability framed by familial connections between landlords and backyard tenants. The article also uncovers certain challenges presented by informal backyard rentals and social sustainability, predominantly related to the quality of structures and certain social concerns. In its totality, the article provides a contextualised perspective on social sustainability in the informal backyard rental sector and provides the planning community and other decision makers with a more nuanced understanding of the complexities and potentials that may underpin it in small town South Africa and beyond.
鉴于所面临的挑战和不平等,社会可持续性是后种族隔离时代南非的一个重要研究领域,数百万人居住在非正式定居点和非正式后院租赁住所的城市景观就是明证。本文从社会可持续性的角度调查了南非的非正式后院租赁现象,重点是在奥德特肖恩的布里奇顿和邦戈勒图进行的案例研究。定性和定量的研究结果揭示了房东和后院租户之间的家庭关系支持社会可持续性的几个特征。文章还揭示了非正式后院租赁和社会可持续性带来的某些挑战,主要与结构质量和某些社会问题有关。总的来说,这篇文章为非正规后院租赁行业的社会可持续性提供了一个情境化的视角,并为规划界和其他决策者提供了对南非小镇及其他地区的复杂性和潜力的更细致的理解。

Like many developing countries over the decade, Nigeria has experienced rapid urbanization associated with numerous problems such as, among others, improper waste management practices, building development regulations and standards contraventions, environmental pollution, overcrowding, and flooding. In light of the foregoing, this article examines the use and effectiveness of development control measures in addressing flood vulnerability in Suleja, Nigeria. In carrying out this study, buildings vulnerable to flooding were identified and factors influencing their vulnerability as well as the implications of non-adherence to development control measures were also determined. As part of this study, a total of 278 questionnaires were administered to adult residents of the study area, using multi-stage sampling techniques. A quick bird’s eye image of 15-meter resolution was used to identify and map out the buildings in the area considered vulnerable to flooding, using a 15-meter setback from the river banks. The study reveals that 799 buildings were built in contravention of building development standards and regulations in Suleja, while indiscriminate solid waste disposal methods were found to be strong factors influencing vulnerability to flooding in the area. The study also revealed that 47% of drainages in Suleja are blocked with indiscriminately disposed solid waste materials. The study recommends that an improved solid waste management system for Suleja be put in place to stem the imminent outbreak of diseases associated with poor environmental management and that development control measures be strictly enforced by the Niger State Urban Development Board.
与过去十年中的许多发展中国家一样,尼日利亚经历了与许多问题相关的快速城市化,其中包括不当的废物管理做法、违反建筑发展法规和标准、环境污染、过度拥挤和洪水。鉴于上述情况,本文考察了发展控制措施在解决尼日利亚苏莱贾洪水脆弱性方面的使用和有效性。在进行这项研究时,确定了易受洪水影响的建筑物,并确定了影响其脆弱性的因素以及不遵守开发控制措施的影响。作为本研究的一部分,使用多阶段抽样技术,共向研究区域的成年居民发放了278份问卷。一张15米分辨率的快速鸟瞰图被用来识别和绘制该地区被认为易受洪水影响的建筑物,从河岸后退15米。研究显示,在苏莱贾,799栋建筑违反了建筑发展标准和法规,而不加区分的固体废物处理方法被发现是影响该地区易受洪水影响的重要因素。研究还显示,苏莱贾47%的排水沟被不加选择地处理的固体废物堵塞。该研究建议,为苏莱贾建立一个改进的固体废物管理系统,以遏制与环境管理不善有关的疾病即将爆发,尼日尔国家城市发展委员会应严格执行发展控制措施。

The study also revealed that 47% of drainages in Suleja are blocked with indiscriminately disposed solid waste materials. The study recommends that an improved solid waste management system for Suleja be put in place to stem the imminent outbreak of diseases associated with poor environmental management and that development control measures be strictly enforced by the Niger State Urban Development Board.","PeriodicalId":42151,"journal":{"name":"Town and Regional Planning","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2019-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45747807","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

City-making from below: A call for communities of resistance and reconstruction 自下而上的城市建设:呼吁抵抗和重建社区

This article laments the exclusion of small, local communities, voices and visions, from participating in making the city. It makes a case for ‘small communities’ practising resistance and reconstruction in multiple ways and places. Instead of viewing such actions as naïve or a-political, it calls for an understanding of such practices as alternatives to ‘top-down’ urban processes, and, as such, representing a different and necessary, critical political imagination. In doing so, it fuses insights from equity planning theories, praxis-based liberation theological approaches, and emancipatory community development approaches. It argues that communities, aware of the forces that would seek to tear them apart, can play a significant role in making cities ‘from below’. This, it is argued, would be even more possible through such communities finding each other, and nurturing deep solidarities, until broad-based, interconnected movements take shape, embodying concrete signs of wholeness.
这篇文章哀叹小的地方社区、声音和愿景被排除在参与城市建设之外。它为“小社区”以多种方式和地点进行抵抗和重建提供了理由。与其将此类行为视为naïve或非政治行为,它呼吁将此类做法理解为“自上而下”城市进程的替代方案,并因此代表了一种不同的、必要的、批判性的政治想象。在此过程中,它融合了公平规划理论、基于实践的解放神学方法和解放社区发展方法的见解。报告认为,社区意识到那些试图撕裂他们的力量,可以在“自下而上”的城市建设中发挥重要作用。有人认为,通过这样的社区找到彼此,培养深刻的团结,直到广泛的、相互联系的运动形成,体现整体性的具体迹象,这将更有可能。
