dc.description.abstractHistorians of Pietermaritzburg (part of the municipality of Msunduzi and capital of KwaZulu-Natal province) paid only scant attention to the non-white population in the surrounding townships, farms, reserves and other settlements. The worst impacts of degraded or unhealthy environment are concentrated in areas most disadvantaged during apartheid. Bearing in mind that different parts of the city developed at different paces, the paper sketches five rough periods of time in which a clearly dominant tendency can be identified. What the author calls “demented industrialization” counterbalances narratives of progress and development.
