Empowerment Through Service Delivery

Empowerment through Service Delivery critically appraises the challenges facing infrastructure and service delivery in South Africa. It assesses, evaluates, and analyses perceptions of infrastructure and service delivery since 1994. An array of case studies drawn from various provinces and diverse rural and urban settings is presented. Empowerment through Service Delivery brings together both qualitative and quantitative analyses, covering various sectors such as water, electricity, transport, education, health, human resources and local economic development. The contributors are drawn from a wide range of progressive academics, local government executives, municipal managers and administrators, policy makers, and independent researchers and academics. This book is essential reading for students of development studies, geography, sociology, politics, public policy and economics.
