dc.description.abstractEnglish: Since the government transformation in 1994, various efforts have been made in South Africa to institute a developmental local government system to facilitate and enhance growth and development in all sectors of society and to (re)structure and (re)develop the fragmented urban regions in the country. This article argues that the local government system (including the municipal development planning system) in South Africa is not appropriate to effectively facilitate the type of development that is required in this country (and in this globalising space and time). In view of the above, this exploratory inquiry2 aims to unpack and explore the developmental status and characteristics of local government in South Africa. The article concludes with some challenges, questions and propositions in an attempt to stimulate interest, debate, further research and to determine a possible path towards a ‘new developmental local state’.en_ZA
dc.description.abstractAfrikaans: Sedert die regeringstransformasie in 1994, is daar verskeie pogings in Suid-Afrika aangewend om ’n plaaslike bestuur daar te stel wat ontwikkeling en ekonomiese groei in alle sektore van die samelewing bevorder en om die gefragmenteerde stedelike omgewings in die land te (her)struktureer en te (her)ontwikkel. Daar word geargumenteer dat die huidige plaaslike regeringstelsel (insluitende die munisipale ontwikkelingsbeplanningstelsel) in Suid-Afrika nie meer geskik is om die tipe ontwikkeling wat in hierdie veranderende wêreldruimte en tyd vereis word, effektief te fasiliteer nie. In lyn met die bogenoemde, het hierdie verkennende ondersoek ten doel om die ontwikkelingstatus en eienskappe van plaaslike regering in Suid-Afrika te ontrafel en te ondersoek. Hierdie artikel eindig met ’n aantal uitdagings, vrae en voorstelle, met die doel om belangstelling te prikkel, debatte en verdere navorsing te stimuleer en om ’n moontlike nuwe koers na ’n nuwe plaaslike ontwikkelingstaat te bepaal.af
