The City in the Developing World

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

A comprehensive introduction to urbanisation in developing countries. The goal of this text is to place an understanding of the developing world city in its wider global context. The important themes of globalisation, modernity and postmodernity are examined both in relation to the structure of sets of towns and cities which make up the national or regional urban system, and in respect of ideas and concepts dealing with the morphology, structure and social patterning of individual urban areas.
