The arguments are not only based on material progress, but also on the growing social difficulties experienced by these metropolises (e.g., organized crime, drug trafficking, slums, economic inequalities). The book illustrates the growth of cities according to these problems arising from the modernity of the new century, comparing Latin American and Asian cities. This book analyzes the complex relationships within cities through an interdisciplinary approach, complementing other research and challenging orthodox views on global cities. At the same time, the book provides new theoretical and methodological tools to understand the progress of "Third World" cities and the way of understanding "globality" in the 21st century by confronting the traditional views with which global cities were appreciated since the 1980s. Pablo Baisotti brings together researchers from various fields who provide new interpretative keys to certain cities in Latin America and Asia.Cities and townsLatin America21st centuryCities and townsAsia21st centuryCities and townsDeveloping countries21st centuryGlobalizationLatin America21st centuryGlobalizationAsia21st centuryGlobalizationDeveloping countries21st centuryLatin AmericaSocial conditions21st centuryAsiaSocial conditions21st centuryCities and townsCities and townsCities and townsGlobalizationGlobalizationGlobalization307.76Baisotti Pablo1208279Baisotti PabloEYMEYMBOOK9910558401403321New Global Cities in Latin America and Asia2824542UNINA
