These transitions occur in regions where the majority of inhabitants remain trapped in vulnerable employment, which limits the capacities to plan, save, invest, and afford critical amenities, as well as limits the horizons of what is considered possible. Yet, the aspirations for mobility, security, consumption, and attainment are enormous. How can different rationalities and practices of everyday sociality be more effectively connected to the prevailing concepts informing formal political and policymaking projects? How can incommensurable facets of urban life be folded into each other as a matter of an enlarged political practice? There is no pre-existent map that tells us how to link these equally important dimensions of urban life. Thus, any effort to consider the relationship between them is by necessity an experiment. 410 0$aCarl Schlettwein lectures ;$v9. 606 $aCities and towns$zAfrica 606 $aCities and towns$zAsia 606 $aUrbanization$zAfrica 606 $aUrbanization$zAsia 607 $aAfrica$xSocial conditions$y21st century 607 $aAsia$xSocial conditions$y21st century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCities and towns 615 0$aCities and towns 615 0$aUrbanization 615 0$aUrbanization 700 $aAbdouMaliq$b Simone$01718256 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811190303321 996 $aAlways Something Else$94115077 997 $aUNINA
