Examining street vending as a global, urban, and informalized
practice found both in the Global North and Global South, this
volume presents contributions from international scholars working
in cities as diverse as Berlin, Dhaka, New York City, Los Angeles,
Calcutta, Rio de Janeiro, and Mexico City. The aim of this global
approach is to repudiate the assumption that street vending is
usually carried out in the Southern hemisphere and to reveal how it
also represents an essential-and constantly growing-economic
practice in urban centers of the Global North. Although street
vending activities vary due to local specificities, this anthology
illustrates how these urban practices can also reveal global ties
and developments.
