Informality Revisited
Wiley-Blackwell (Verlag)
978-1-119-14110-5 (ISBN)
Brings together nine leading Latin American researchers in the field of land and housing policy to address the question of informal urban development, particularly in Brazil, Colombia, Mexico and Peru
Highlights the interrelationships between the production of formal and informal urban development and demonstrates how economic and legal reforms intended to make the market more effective and profitable have affected the production of urban space
Explores how Latin American governments are applying neo-liberal principles to land and housing policies
Investigates the implications of government actions for the production and commodification of urban land as well as the formalisation of property rights and provision of housing for the urban poor
Contributors draw on a wide range of quantitative and qualitative data, including census results and previously unpublished official statistics
