| Synopsis: |
This volume focuses on the question of whether African development has historically been weighted in favour of the urban areas. While the authors come out clearly against "urban bias", one of their main worries is that the benefits, and the necessity, of urban development are being lost in current adjustment approaches. What is necessary, they suggest, is to harness "the financial and human resources of the human city as part of a strategy to ensure greater and more widespread economic development". This book provides many important - and controversial - conclusions and recommendations. |
