Cities in a World Economy

Cities in a World Economy presents sociologists with a new perspective on the study of urban sociology. The decentralization and privatization of the world′s economies has radically altered such things as the organization of labour, the structure of consumption, and the distribution of earnings in ways that have yet to be fully realized.
