Originally published in 1986, this book focusses on life within
global cities in the developing world, analysing on a city-level
the circulation and consumption of goods and services within them.
When the book was first published it was one of only a few to offer
systematic comparative analyses of developing world cities, and
those stemming from different regions, with examples from different
continents in each chapter. It discusses the problems faced by such
city populations and shows how the procedures, distributive systems
and social conventions reflect the complex histories of the cities,
most of which have been subject to colonial rule, and of their
inhabitants, many of whom are either migrants or first generation
citizens.
