Description

Gain a deeper understanding of urbanism through the eyes of those living in informal settlements. The Politics of Slums in the Global South provides a necessary perspective on the political dynamics of urban life by focusing on the experiences of residents in Brazil, India, South Africa, and Peru. This academic work examines how individuals living in sub-standard conditions navigate life when their rights as urban citizens are not recognized. It explores the reality that many residents cannot rely on formal governance or democratic channels, leading to unique political behaviors and social structures. By combining conceptual discussions with empirical research, this book offers a comprehensive look at urban informality. Through in-depth case studies and comparative research, the text bridges the gap between theory and real-world application. It is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in sociology, anthropology, and urban development in the Global South.
