Johannesburg, synonymous with migration since its provenance in the 1890s gold rush, is the only city in South Africa to have designed and implemented an urban migration policy. It is a striking example of a post-apartheid city in which mobility is a marker of precarity or poverty for citizen and migrant alike. This chapter is partially based on a research project aimed at understanding what the creation and operation of Johannesburg’s migration policy reveals about the city government’s vision of who to include or exclude from its jurisdictions through governing urban migration.

摘要

Johannesburg, synonymous with migration since its provenance in the 1890s gold rush, is the only city in South Africa to have designed and implemented an urban migration policy. It is a striking example of a post-apartheid city in which mobility is a marker of precarity or poverty for citizen and migrant alike. This chapter is partially based on a research project aimed at understanding what the creation and operation of Johannesburg’s migration policy reveals about the city government’s vision of who to include or exclude from its jurisdictions through governing urban migration.
