Abstract

Planning for resettlement should aim to preserve existing social networks and nurture collective bonds. This is important for the continuity of internal forms of social control that are necessary for controlling the locality space and activities in it. This policy brief traces the linkages of thefts, robberies and burglaries to four dimensions of urban planning and governance. The Centre for Urban Equity (CUE) research takes an expansive approach to violence, examining structural or indirect violence (material deprivation, inequality, exclusion), direct violence (direct infliction of physical or psychological harm), overt conflict and its links to violence and different types of crime.
