- Description: The Development Studies Unit (DSU) seeks to identify and promote strategies and mechanisms for creating jobs in the Eastern Cape. In general, this approach seeks to alleviate the effects of endemic poverty amongst Black communities in the region and to facilitate their economic empowerment. Securing these goals is considered to be vitally important in the development process; which, in turn, consists of finding appropriate ways and means to create opportunities for impoverished communities to take control of their own destinies and to establish themselves as an economic force in the region. , Digitised by Rhodes University Library on behalf of the Institute of Social and Economic Research (ISER)

- Authors: Davies, William J
- Date: 1989
- Subjects: Standard Bank National Arts Festival
- Language: English
- Type: Book , Text

- Description: The Standard Bank National Festival of the Arts is held annually in early July in Grahamstown. Apart from its importance as a national cultural event, the Festival is vitally important to the economy of Grahamstown. The annual influx of Festival participants results in expenditure amounting to several million rand, concentrated into a hectic nine-day extravaganza. The Development Studies Unit at Rhodes University and the 1820 Foundation have attempted to monitor the nature and extent of the Festival's impact on Grahamstown since 1987. Information is collected by means of a voluntary questionnaire (the Fest-Quest), and provides a useful resource for the Festival organizers as well as insights into the relative economic importance of the occasion. Fest-Quest '88 is the second such survey undertaken. , Digitised by Rhodes University Library on behalf of the Institute of Social and Economic Research (ISER)

- Description: The process of managing and administering regional development in South Africa is in need of drastic revision. Exactly what form such revision takes, however, is not yet clear. The extent to which the structure and organisation of regional development programmes is intricately associated with the ideological principles of macro-apartheid is part of the problem and a great deal of work requires to be done in order to arrive at proposals which could constitute points of departure for constructing a new approach. This research is a small step in that direction and should be seen as a means to an end in an on-going process. , Digitised by Rhodes University Library on behalf of the Institute of Social and Economic Research (ISER)
