Cities serve as the intersection where both micro and macro social processes, along with global and local contexts, can be observed and analyzed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile much of the existing literature on urbanization and globalization has focused on cities in developed countries, less attention has been given to cities in the developing world. These cities, though not 'global' in the sense of their developed counterparts, are 'globalizing cities' that are experiencing rapid changes under the influence of globalization.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book brings together a range of studies on socio-spatial segregation and inequality in globalizing cities across ten developing countries in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. While the social challenges faced by these cities may be common across the developing world, the impact of globalization is differently felt in each region due to local social structures. The anthology aims to critically analyze how these cities, under the forces of globalization, have been shaped by their unique local conditions, exploring the deep socio-economic divisions that have emerged in the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book serves as an essential resource for understanding the complexities of urban transformation and social inequality in a globalizing world, with particular emphasis on the cities of the developing countries.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rawat Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50029233242416,"sku":"DRG.RawatPublications_8131600610","price":777.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/61d7vi0Nt_L.jpg?v=1756392533","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/bn\/products\/globalizing-cities-inequality-and-segregation-in-developing-countries","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
