| spelling | oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/11705 A tenuous middle ground : conflicting rationalities and the lived negotiation of low income housing in Cape Town Schermbrucker, Noah Oldfield, Sophie Environmental and Geographical Science Includes bibliographical references (p. 157-166). This thesis explores debates surrounding the social production and interaction of divergent housing rationalities through qualitative research in a low income housing development called Stock Road and in the offices of the para-statal company that developed and administered the area, the Cape Town Community Housing Company (CTCHC). Investigations draw on literatures of the state, development and critiques of South African housing policy to "sketch" the predominant characteristics of the CTCHC’s housing rationality. The contours of residents housing rationalities are explored through an engagement with literatures and case studies that stress the social and historical aspects of home-ownership. 2015-01-07T13:37:32Z 2015-01-07T13:37:32Z 2010 Master Thesis Masters MSocSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11705 eng application/pdf Department of Environmental and Geographical Science Faculty of Science University of Cape Town |
