In this article, which has just appeared open access in the Utrecht Law Review’s first edition of 2024, Angela van der Berg and I assess the resilience of the legal frameworks for urban governance during the Covid-19 pandemic, as experienced in cities in the Netherlands and South Africa, against the characteristics of “adaptive law”.
Angela and I previously presented an early draft of this paper at Fordham University Urban Law
Centre Ninth International and Comparative Urban Law Conference at the Ghana Institute of
Management and Public Administration held in Accra, Ghana on 18–20 May, 2023.
