Peri-Urban Expansion in the Maputo City Region
Urbanisation in sub-Saharan Africa has been marked by high socio-economic inequality, which continued after independence. The growth of a still ill-defined middle class has introduced new dynamics in urban space in the region, with different effects on lower-income groups, who form the vast majority of city dwellers. Access to urban land is central to these new dynamics and plays an important role in the reduction of pre-existing inequalities. In…
The Production of Urban Peripheries For and By Low-Income Populations at the Turn of the Millennium
The dynamics of rapid urbanisation and urban trends in the present neoliberal context, which arise from the production of space in the capitalist mode of production, are evident in the peripheries recently produced for and by low-income populations. This article examines these peripheries in representative southern African cities, with Maputo as the main case study, analysed in relation to Luanda and Johannesburg. Basing my argument on the overar…

Por meio da análise histórica do desenvolvimento da capital moçambicana, Maputo, e do urbanismo português nela patente desde a sua génese, procura-se ent…
