Description

Explore a unique approach to urban development in this academic study from the King's SOAS Studies in Development Geography series. Published by Routledge, this book examines the innovative strategy introduced by the Maharashtra state government in the mid-1990s to address housing in Mumbai (Bombay). Unlike traditional methods like slum clearance or slum upgrading, the Mumbai model focuses on demolishing existing slums to rebuild on the same sites at a higher density. This volume investigates the origins of this specific redevelopment strategy and analyzes the practical challenges faced during implementation. It provides a critical look at how urban density and redevelopment policies function in a major developing city. This text is a valuable resource for those studying urban geography, architecture, and development strategies in rapidly growing metropolitan areas.
