A discourse submitted to
the Faculty of Town and Regional Planning,
University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg,
in fulfilment of the requirements for
Master or Science in Development Planning. / Development planning plays an important role in integrating the actions and
behaviours of groups and individuals with the needs of the economy. and thus in
ensuring the continued reproduction of capitalism. An understanding of the history
of development planning in South Africa and in Southern Pinetown through the tools
of regulation theory, shows how the apartheid "development planning process' for a
limited amount of time, arguably favoured the needs of racially skewed capital by
securing stability and control over an exploited, black workforce, Within the post apartheid era characterised by constant and unprecedented change, development
planning needs to become impregnated within the fabric of society. The role for
planners and the local state is therefore to impart a strategic planning mind set into the
diverse forces and components, whose combined actions together create the urban
form. / Andrew Chakane 2019
