| dc.description.abstract | Sanitised space is a concept that is quickly gaining momentum in the disciplines of urban planning and architecture. It refers to the process in which urban space is ‘cleansed’ from all things that make it dirty, undesirable, and differentiated. The process can be achieved through the use of soft power or it can also be achieved through hard power. Through the use of semistructured interviews with municipal officials, this paper seeks to showcase the various efforts by the capital city of Tshwane, South Africa to sanitise space in the name of peace. With the use of examples from public parks, the paper argues that although the sanitisation of space is done in the name of public interest, peace, it often conflicts with the public experience. Key words: Sanitisation, Public Space, Safety and security, Peace, Symbolic violence | |
