摘要

Neoliberalism is the hegemonic economic and geographical discourse of our time. Even though the global recession has proven the fallibility of the system and the need for it to be jettisoned, the geographical aspects of this system will remain intact for the foreseeable future. Although neoliberalism has been part of the geographical lexicon for some time now, and a substantial body of work bears testimony to this, its spatial features and effects have hardly been exhausted in the geographical literature. This is even more salient when it comes to the South African situation. The spatial impact of neoliberalism in South Africa remains largely neglected. This paper is a response to the perceived lacuna in the geographical study of neoliberalism in South Africa. What 1 want to discuss in this paper is the spaces which the neoliberalisa tion of water services in the Durban (eThekwini) municipality has created. In this regard the concept of the spatial fix linked to ideas of crisis is deployed. The neoliberalisation of water services has had uneven spatial effects which I seek to elucidate. My contention is that for neoliberalism to survive as a system it has to create an uneven geography. My contention is that the neoliberalisation of water services and in consequence the neoliberalisation of space in the Durban (eThekwini) municipality violates the rights of citizens. Furthermore, I contend that one's place in space determines the nature of one's citizenship.
