Living with Risk examines how lower class communities in the inner city and the urban fringe of Bangkok view their employment prospects and living conditions, and how they manage risk. The author draws on two case studies, one considering the situation of women who became self-employed after losing factory jobs during Thailand's economic restructuring in the late 1990s, and the second a community displaced by a devastating fire. The book's detailed examination of the dynamics of the informal economy makes a substantial contribution to the literature on development economics in urban areas.
