dc.description.abstract• Opsomming: Navorsing het getoon dat pogings van plaaslike owerhede om plaaslike ekonomie te ondersteun en werksgeleenthede te verskaf, nie ’n onlangse ontwikkeling in Suid Afrika is nie. Bewyse van Port Elizabeth en drie Oos-Kaapse dorpe toon dat plaaslike regerings aktief betrokke was in aggressiewe plekbemarkingsstrategië, werksverskaffingsprogramme en die beskikbaarstelling van verskillende aansporings vir potensiële firmas. Strategieë wat geïmplementeer was, het verskillende resultate opgelewer en hierdie artikel beklemtoon In paar van die merkwaardige verskille wat ontstaan het.
dc.description.abstract• Summary: Research has revealed that local authorities' endeavours to actively implement local economic development policies in an effort to boost these economies and generate employment opportunities is not a new concept in South Africa. Evidence from Port Elizabeth and three Eastern Cape towns reveals that aggressive place marketing campaigns, public works programmes and the granting of a variety of incentives to potential investors was a distinctive feature of municipal activity in this time period Strategies implemented met with varying degrees of success and this article highlights some of the contrasts which can be discerned
