This new gathering of essays stands as an authoritative and up-to-date overview of the urban experience in the developing areas of the globe. Twenty-nine contributors--established experts on urbanization from the fields of anthropology, architecture, economics, geography, political science, psychology, and sociology--offer general reviews and case studies, many comparative in time or space. While Gugler's earlier collection is arranged by region, this book is organized in terms of the principal issues in urbanization: development theory and policy, rural-to-urban migration, urban employment structures, forms of social integration and control, the housing question, and the local and national politics played out in the urban arena. Cities of the Developing World offers much to those interested in the research of burgeoning cities, as well as those curious about how such research can best be reported, evaluated, and examined.
