The persistence of the casual poor in Johannesburg
This paper draws the attention of urban historians and historical geographers to the neglect of the casual poor in South Africa's cities, more particularly those in Johannesburg. Evidence is presented to show that the casual poor have been an ever-present constituent in the urban milieu. Their life-style and their modes of existence have so far received little attention. The occupations of the casual poor are those of the urban informal sector. I…

Upward and Outward Expansion of the White City and the Apartheid Era
Johannesburg
Until now there has been no single text that brings together the material that reveals the unfolding geography of Johannesburg, South Africa. This books describes the history of the city from its days as a mining camp to its position of premier metropolis in Africa. The present geography of Johannesburg, and the problems and dysfunctions that is hat exhibited at various stages in its history since 1886, cannot be understood without a firm grasp o…

Formalizing milk production in Johannesburg
In the early part of the twentieth century daily milk supplies in Johannesburg came from a proliferation of small-scale 'informal' dairies as well as from a few large-scale dairies. Spurred on by a growing concern for high standards of hygiene in general the municipality began to police the production of milk more strictly. The effect was to cause an increase in the production costs of the largescale dairies which in turn viewed both the official…

The geography of the Afrikaner Broederbond in Namibia
The power and influence of the Afrikaner Broederbond in the Southern African political sphere has been analysed and assessed in a non‐spatial context. However, it is only when the spatial distribution of the organisation is revealed that the full dimension of its power may be interpreted in the unfolding political struggles within the subcontinent. This paper furnishes a ‘synoptic’ examination of the geography of the Afrikaner Broederbond in Nami…
Consumer Choice of Shopping Centre-A Hypergeometric Model
The paper identifies the role of consumer choice models in relating consumer behaviour to observed characteristics of shopping centres. A hypergeometric model of consumer choice, assuming a finite set of ranked alternatives and limited searching in random order, is then introduced and developed to model situations where tied ranks exist. The properties of the model are illustrated using hypothetical values for the model parameters and it is shown…
