Local Government in South Africa: Review of Administration & Governance

Local Government in many countries faces a myriad of challenges. Some of the problems are inclined towards structural arrangements and leadership, operations and human capital. South Africa as a developing state is in the process of discovering these imbalances and setting up mechanisms and systems of addressing them.
