A rigorous, critical new discussion of Johannesburg as a paradigmatic example of the contemporary global south city. It considers localised manifestations of the late capitalist experience of pervasive anxiety as a structuring principle of urban life, and provides snapshots of the anxieties of daily lived experience in this city.
