- W3167692314 abstract "The discovery and mining of diamonds has played a crucial role in the establishment of Kimberley as a settlement and its subsequent urban growth and decline. This holds true even in post-apartheid Kimberley’s post-resource era. The closure of diamond mines has had a negative impact on the city. However, the designation of the city in 1994 as the capital of the Northern Cape province has cemented its position as a regional, government-service centre and injected new growth in the city. Unfortunately, the municipality struggles to provide residents with low-income housing (a lingering housing backlog is testament to this) and battles to provide basic services to its citizens. Indeed, just after the turn of the century, certain bulk services such as the wastewater treatment works have reached capacity, and this has stymied the provision of large-scale housing in Kimberley. The population and urban footprint of Galeshewe has continued to grow while previously white suburbs have shown the highest levels of desegregation. Efforts at urban renewal in Galeshewe have not delivered the desired outcomes. Similarly, a municipal focus on growing the tourism economy of the city has had limited success. However, the establishment and opening, in 2014, of the Sol Plaatje University promises to be the catalyst for new economic opportunities. Government-led building projects could eradicate apartheid-era buffer zones and strengthen the urban fabric of the city. Concerted municipal efforts to address the housing backlog, the expansion of the legalisation of small-scale mining activities, the effective promotion of the tourism and night-time economies hold potential to bring new direction to the city economy." @default.
