Cities are now home to 55% of the world's population, and that
number is rising. Urban populations across the world will continue
to grow, including in megacities with populations over ten million.
In 2016 there were 31 megacities globally, according to the United
Nations' World Cities Report, with 24 of those cities located in
the Global South. That number is expected to rise to 41 by 2030,
with all ten new megacities in the Global South where the processes
of urbanization are intrinsically distinct from those in the Global
North. The Routledge Handbook of Planning Megacities in the Global
South provides rigorous comparative analyses, discussing the
challenges, processes, best practices, and initiatives of
urbanization in Middle America, South America, the Middle East,
Africa, South Asia, East Asia, and Southeast Asia. This book is
indispensable reading for students and scholars of urban planning,
and its significance as a resource will only continue to grow as
urbanization reshapes the global population.
