For the last seven decades, urban settlement policy worldwide has
been increasingly dominated by modernist precepts and by urban
decisions made in discipline-specific 'silos'. The urban management
consequences have been invariably negative, with increasing sprawl,
fragmentation and separation resulting in a wide range of
environmental, social and economic problems. This book explores the
role of movement in a more integrated approach to urban settlement,
and how thinking, policies and actions need to change. South Africa
is used as a particularly good case study, since patterns of
sprawl, fragmentation and separation have been exacerbated by
apartheid, while recent legislation has demanded a reversal of
these tendencies.
