Dr Xolela Mangcu, Department of History, University of KwaZulu-Natal. The heritage of great leaders has produced a corrupt, patronage-based political culture. In the wake of growing community protests around the country, South Africa urgently needs to develop local institutions to respond to pent-up frustrations and serve as sites for collective problem solving and democratic accountability.

Heinrich Wolff - Architecture at a time of social change
Designers of the future lecture. In view of radical change such as in North Africa, urgent questions should be asked about the role of architecture in times of social change and what role architects can play in the outcomes of societal transformation. South African architect Heinrich Wolff strongly believes architecture can blaze a path to social, economic, environmental and political transformation and a more socially equal future in the long run.
