Simon Bekker is Emeritus Professor in Sociology at the University of Stellenbosch, South Africa. He acted as Professor of Development Studies at Rhodes University, Professor of Sociology at UNISA and Director of the Centre for Social and Development Studies at the (then) University of Natal (Durban).
Laurent Fourchard is currently senior researcher for the National Foundation of Political Science at the Centre d’Etude d’Afrique Noire, University of Bordeaux, France. He is co-editor of the journal Politique africaine. This volume departs from a different set of questions and employs a novel approach in discussing them: cities in sub-Saharan Africa provide the pivot around which issues of policy and practice, planning and service delivery turn, at different scales and both from the top down as well as from the bottom up. Party politics, for example, is discussed at city level and urban security both within a state and a non-state context.
