Abstract
In the first ten years of democracy, urban policy in South Africa has been driven by national government in an attempt, inter alia, to accelerate the mass delivery of basic services at a local level. But, over the past five years the increasingly robust role and influence of cities in setting the urban agenda is, in effect, leading urban policy.-
