Landscapes of peripheral and displaced urbanism
GCRO Research Report 14 focuses on the peripheral and historically displaced areas of the northern Gauteng City-Region. To that end, it discusses the following themes: the Gauteng City-Region’s changing urban cores, peripheral and displaced landscapes; the landscape idea: its peripheral, displaced and other forms; writing peripheral areas and city-regions; complexities of peripheral spaces; remaking the historical Rustenburg landscape; remaking contemporary Rustenburg landscapes; mobility for spatial- and self-development in the former KwaNdebele bantustan; land occupation strategies in the informal settlements of Mabopane and KwaMhlanga.
