GEOG 29 Global Cities
This course examines contemporary urbanization in a global setting - paying attention to the intersection of numerous global and local forces (political, economic, historic and cultural) shaping the planning and design (or lack thereof) of city spaces in the global south and its implications for city residents. Utilizing examples from the Middle East, India, China, Latin America and Africa, we will explore how various demographics within these places experience and navigate the dynamically changing city spaces.
