Abstract

This article explores the construction of neighbourhood organizations over time and their role in extending citizenship rights. It explores the structural conditions under which neighbourhood organizations develop, the socio-historical process whereby they have been constructed by purposeful human agents, their meanings and the interrelations between social actors and state agents. There appears to be a gradual change in the nature of the neighbourhood organizations from independent ratepayers associations to paternalist models of social dependency then to protest organizations and finally to co-production.
