内容説明
In this innovative book, David Smith ultimately links what happens on the ground in the neighbourhoods where people live to the larger political and economic forces at work, putting these connections in a historical framework and using a case study approach.The societies of the world's underdeveloped countries are now undergoing an urban revolution that is drastically altering the fabric of their predominantly rural agrarian societies. Smith takes the emerging political economy perspective on urbanization, with its focus on global inequality and dependency, as the context for city growth in the Third World.This perspective allows Smith to critique the conventional ecological view of the city, not by rejecting traditional analyses out of hand, but by reformulating the crucial questions. The conventional ecological perspective assumes an equilibrium model, where very rapid city growth and the various types of urban imbalances are transitional phases on the path to modernity in contrast, the comparative political economy approach conceptualizes uneven development and inequality as an inevitable result of the expansion of the capitalist world-system.

内容説明
Explaining the relationship between a seemingly abstract framework and national and municipal dynamics, this book ultimately links what happens "on the ground" in the neighbourhoods where people live to the larger political and economic forces at work, grounding this relationship in historical realities. The author takes the emerging political-economy perspective on urbanization, with its focus on global inequality and dependency, as the context for city growth in the Third World.
