- W38580840 abstract "Local governance has to play a leading role in the democratic system that emerged in South Africa after 1994. The new policy framework is a systematic and complex manifesto to realize local participatory governance. Participatory governance aims to achieve the political goal of democratic citizenship; the economic goal of growth; and the social goal of integrating divided communities. The Constitution of the Republic of South Africa (RSA: 1996), followed by several pieces of legislation provides for the institutional involvement of the community and community organisations in local government matters, as well as for consultation with communities through methods such as consultative meetings and public hearings. However, while the policy framework is well embedded within a nationally defined policy structure, its execution at the local level is very much the function of separate, independent local government spheres spread across rural areas, district councils and metropolises. There are 243 distinct local government areas, characterized by uneven development and capabilities. Each local government area is commanded to deliver basic services and promote economic growth towards a national development and reconstruction project. Participatory governance is offered as the instrument to shape the dynamics of all local government areas. The decision-making process in local planning and budget allocation is the pulse of local processes based on new relations with the diversity of civil society – civics, labour, business and other locally constituted groups. The focus of this study is limited to participatory governance in the form of involvement of communities and community organisations in matters of local government in general, and citizens’ participation in the local budget process in particular. The study therefore aims to: 1. assess the theoretical and policy framework for citizens’ participation in South Africa; and 2. evaluate the perceptions of councillors and civics and ratepayer organisations on participation in the local budget process at the eThekwini Municipality. The study introduces the theoretical and conceptual framework of citizens’ participation through the literature review; followed by a comparative analysis of three case studies; and finally focuses on the empirical study of citizens’ participation in the local budget process of the eThekwini Municipality." @default.
