Description

This reissued classic, originally published in 1989, examines the surge of community-based movements across Third-World cities during the 1980s, focusing on their efforts to enhance living conditions. Drawing on qualitative, comparative research, the book analyses the dynamics and constraints of urban social movements through a cross-cultural lens, presenting detailed case studies from Latin American, African and Asian nations. As more democratic regimes emerged in the Third World, collective organisations and actions gained momentum, making urban social movements increasingly significant to development and social change. This Routledge Library Edition makes this foundational study accessible to scholars, researchers and students of development economics, political science and urban studies seeking to understand grassroots activism and community organising in developing nations.

Key Features

This Routledge reissue brings the 1989 original text back into print for contemporary readers interested in Third-World urban development.

Qualitative, comparative research methodology provides evidence-based analysis of social movement dynamics across multiple continents and cultural contexts.

Case studies from Latin American, African and Asian countries illustrate how local movements adapted strategies to their specific urban environments and constraints.

The book examines how democratisation in the Third World created new opportunities for collective action and grassroots organising in cities.

Ideal for development studies, economics, political science and sociology courses exploring grassroots movements and urban policy.
