城市一体化似乎是所有参与南非城市发展的人的口头禅。人们认为这是解决南非城市许多棘手问题的灵丹妙药，这是可以原谅的。市区融合是政府推行市区重建策略的核心理念。这一概念在最近发布的《城市化白色文件草案》中得到了强烈体现。它也是1997年启动的城市发展框架（UDF）的核心，是政府对城市发展和重建的政策方法。城市一体化在南非当前的政策环境中确实无处不在。然而，它的含义及其应用仍然笼罩在混乱之中，并有傲慢的倾向。
Urban integration is seemingly on the lips of all involved with urban development in South Africa. One can be forgiven for thinking it is the magic bullet that will resolve the many intractable problems that mark South Africa’s cities. Urban integration is the core idea that underpins the unfolding Urban Renewal Strategy of the government. The notion emerges strongly in the recently published Draft White Paper on Urbanisation. It is also at the heart of the Urban Development Framework (UDF) that was launched in 1997 as the government’s policy approach to urban development and reconstruction. Urban integration is indeed ubiquitous in the current policy landscapes of South Africa. Yet, its meaning and its application remains shrouded in confusion, with a tendency for hubris.
