Public Problems--private Solutions?: Globalizing Cities in the SouthKlaus Segbers, Simon Raiser, Krister Volkmann Ashgate, 2005 - 434 páginas While research on 'global' cities has focused primarily on the world's leading financial and economic centres, comparative research on the changing role of large, complex cities in the developing world is less advanced. Illustrated by in-depth examinations of four city regions: Shanghai, Mumbai, Johannesburg and São Paulo, this book readdresses this balance. |
