dc.description.abstract | Land is currently a hotly contested topic within South Africa, with the essential notion being that land is a right. However, within the South African context, due to the legacy of apartheid, land is not simply just a commodity, but also an emotional issue. Existing literature suggests that land is a historical and social right, in which all members of society should have access, irrespective of their financial status. However in the postapartheid city, this does not reflect. The apartheid legislature and spatial planning principles fostered the creation of lost urban and contested spaces through methods such as exploitation, expropriation and segregation through the forced removal. | en_US |
