Rezensionen

"Although Dr. Anderson sets out to write 'a succinct account of human mobility and resistance in the 21st century' (p.1), he has ended up doing much more. Not only has he unveiled a new way of studying cities and mobility, he has also offered much-needed answers on how cities might be reconfigured to better support migrants, their families, and friends. The City in Transgression is a breakthrough in how to study the city and make urban policy for people; not for profit. Here is a welcome transgression against orthodoxy."
