dc.description.abstractThe regulation of space has increasingly been seen to extend beyond the scope of the State to include decentralised, diffuse non-State actors. In South Africa, regulation of shebeens has long been a focus of the State, as a means for regulating behaviour, controlling crime and disorder and generating State income. However the post-apartheid State has struggled to find new and effective ways to regulate alcohol in ways that respond to the myriad problems associated with its consumption. In the absence of effective regulation and enforcement by police, we examine how non-State actors contribute to the regulation of drinking spaces in informal settlements in Cape Town. Through applying a plural perspective on regulation, we examine strategies through which neighbours, shebeen owners and community leaders attempt to regulate the flow of alcohol and sheen practises.en
