SA has shifted from spatial rebalancing policies to a mix of place based and space neutral approaches. There has been much experimentation without an overarching policy framework or vision. Both the space neutral and spatial re-balancing approaches are difficult to justify in SA. The structure and character of the economy are neglected in spatial policy debates. The social, political and institutional environment shapes prospects for spatial policies.
