Publisher's Synopsis

This volume advances our understanding of how Southern Africa is currently being reconfigured, critically examining what has been marketed as the flagship of the Spatial Development Initiative programme in Southern Africa : the Maputo Development Corridor (MDC). - - By examining a variety of cross-cutting levels of governance and development and by focusing on the nexus between the formal and informal processes that stake out the MDC, this volume contributes to a detailed understanding of what is perhaps the most important current experiment in regionalism in Africa. By engaging regional processes on the micro-level and on the ground, there is a special emphasis on how local communities regard and respond to the Corridor initiative. - - All chapters in the volume are the result of extensive fieldwork in both Mozambique and South Africa, and the contributions are drawn from the region and beyond, including Botswana, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Sweden and the United States. -
