Description

This Routledge academic work examines the modern metropolis as a defining symbol of contemporary life, exploring how inherited ideas of modernity apply to two of the world's largest cities. The book interrogates Mexico City and Sao Paulo through their fractured realities, stark social contrasts, and escalating urban violence, drawing comparisons to Engels' nineteenth-century analysis of industrial Manchester. It investigates whether these challenges represent an intensification of historic urban patterns or reflect entirely new dynamics shaped by post-industrial and neo-globalized economies. Essential reading for urban studies scholars, geographers, historians, and anyone seeking to understand the complexities of megacity life in the global south.

Compares contemporary megacity challenges to Engels' foundational nineteenth-century study of Manchester's industrial metropolis.
