"This book examines the challenges of urbanization in the global south and the linkages
between urbanization, economic development and urban poverty from the perspectives
of the cities in Asia, Africa and Latin America. It focuses on various aspects of
urbanisation ranging from food security to public services like sanitation, water
and electricity to finances of cities, and externalities associated with the urbanization
process. The volume also highlights the importance of participatory urban governance
for cities in India with comparative perspectives from other countries. It further
focuses on the urbanization of poverty, livelihood in urban areas, overconsumption
and nutrition, and ecology. Based on primary data, the chapters in the volume review
trends, opportunities, challenges, governance, and strategies of several countries
at different levels of urbanization, with several case studies from India. This multidisciplinary
volume will be of great interest to researchers and students of development studies,
sociology, economics, and urban planning and policy. It will also be useful for policy
makers, think-tanks, and practitioners in the area of urbanization"
