内容説明
By the year 2010, Latin America will contain five metropolitan areas with more then eight million people. Their combined population will be over 70 million, and approximately one Latin American in seven will live in those five cities. The sheer number of people living in these mega-cities is not the only reason for looking at them carefully. Unfortunately, they also demonstrate many of the worst symptoms of the region's underdevelopment: vast areas of shanty towns, huge numbers of poor people, high concentrations of air and water pollution, and serious levels of traffic congestion. This book is about the prospects for their future.
