The Aftermath

The totality of issues which have been discussed in this book, appear to point to the fact that, urban informality is a force that has transformed and continues to transform cities of the Global South and those in South Africa and Zimbabwe included. For this cause, could the ubiquity of urban informality allow urban scholars to think of a post work society in a set up where the professionalisation of biographies is still dominant? Has the notion of work as we know it, been transformed? What about the changing character, content and dynamic of the urban landscape as a result of urban informality? These are some of the questions, with which this chapter grapples, so as to position the notion, that, urban informality has left in its wake an enduring and continuing revolution.
