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.
