Chapter 1: Introduction -- Part 1: Transformation of territorial governance -- Chapter 2: A review of national level territorial governance -- Chapter 3: Regional governance and spatial transformation -- Chapter 4: Territorial governance and its influence on spatial transformation at municipal level -- Chapter 5: Novel approaches to participatory planning -- Chapter 6: Do spatial plans matter? -- Chapter7: Transforming the planning profession -- Part 2: Influence of territorial governance and its 'products' on urban spatial transformation -- Chapter 8: The influence of territorial governance on spatial economic transformation of post-apartheid towns and cities -- Chapter 9: Evolving spatial planning perspectives on socio-economic integration -- Chapter 10: A critical perspective on territorial governance and spatial transformation within the conservation and protected areas context -- Chapter 11: Public transport governance systems and urban spatial transformation nexus: Experiences and lessonslearnt since 1994 -- Chapter 12: The planning and implementation of airport-centric developments:lessons from the Ekurhuleni aerotropolis -- Chapter 13: Grey planning: Responses to informal insurgencies in customary land management systems -- Chapter 14: Negotiated privilege and territorial governance: Exploring the implications of gated developments on public coastal access in South Africa -- Part 3: Contemplating the future -- Chapter 15: Smart city concepts and spatial transformation -- Chapter 16: An African perspective for future South African cities -- Chapter 17: Catching mice. The faltering of normative planning in South African cities and the reluctant pragmatic turn -- Chapter 18: Conclusion.

The book provides a reflective account of the evolution of the territorial governance structures and processes in South Africa over a period of 30 years after the transition to a post-apartheid society in 1994. It also considers the role and influence of these changing governance institutions and processes and their associated outputs (in the form of policies and plans) on several priority dimensions of urban spatial transformation. The synthesis of the experiences and lessons learnt provides the bases for contemplating important future focus areas for territorial governance such as spatial transformation towards smart cities, an African perspective for future South African cities, and transitioning towards a streamlined integrated territorial governance system. The lessons and experiences are not only of local significance in South Africa, but also globally in countries and regions faced with territorial governance and spatial transformation challenges.
