Urbanisation, nativism, and the rule of law in South Africa's 'forbidden' cities

Article Abstract:

South Africa's political liberalisation and strengthening regional ties have engendered new patterns of immigration and urbanisation, resulting in South African migrants and non-nationals converging on the streets of previously 'forbidden' cities. The extra-legal harassment, detention and deportation of non-nationals has helped entrench new economies of corruption and violence that jeopardise the rights and welfare of all urban residents.
