The City in the Developing World is a comprehensive and up-to-date
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. First, this is done by developing the
concept of social surplus product as a key to understanding the
character of the contemporary Third World city. Second, throughout
this text, the city in developing areas is centrally placed in the
context of global, social, economic, political and cultural change.
Thus, 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. The City in the Developing World is a core text for second
and third year undergraduates in the fields of geography,
development studies, planning, economics and the social sciences,
taking options which deal with development issues, development
theory, gender and development and Third World development.
