Gated Communities & Townhouse Complexes Workshop and exhibition
Groupe "Afrique du Sud"
Culturel
The mutation of a model from the upper class to the middle class.
Organised by Karen Lévy (Université Paris Nanterre) & Federica Duca (PARI)
The circulation of the urban model referred to as gated communities contributes to the challenge of understanding contemporary urban spaces all over the world. The multiplication at big scale of low-cost housing, middle class townhouse complexes and luxurious gated estates (all representing different forms of gated communities) dominates the South African urban and peri-urban landscape; it is also associated to the reproduction of Apartheid geography with its forms of spatial segregation. The aim of this workshopis to articulate and problematize this view, with scholars who research this topic in a half-day seminar.
The workshop will be followed by the opening of the exhibition.
