First published in 1994, this work has become established as one of the standard texts on urbanization and regional development problems. This revised edition contains updated statistics and analysis, as well as the author's new introduction, covering events in Latin America up to the present. Looking at a range of cities from Mexico City to Rio de Janeiro, Alan Gilbert explores the many social and environmental challenges facing the Third World's most urbanized region. Chapters explore the growth of the city, migration and informal-sector employment, housing strategies and urban protest.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 171-184) and index.
