| Summary, etc. |
This article discusses current trends in development planning in South Africa. It is argued that it is important to review the institutional framework, in particular legal and constitutional factors, to understand the problems being faced and the progress made. Public health is analysed as a case study, but there is also a focus on local government. The other feature of the argument is that poverty is widespread, especially in rural communities, and planning has to develop the capacity to respond to this challenge. Despite all sorts of initiatives and some rhetoric, there remains a great deal to do. An alternative approach is offered in which there is a more radical shift away from past paradigms which are not appropriate to a development planning geared to poverty alleviation. There are a number of dimensions to consider, including technical effectiveness, participation (including private sector involvement and community action) and institutional capacity building. Some implications for training and research are also identified. - Reproduced |
