Written as real-life tales, the presented case studies explore the relationship between urbanization processes and capitalism. Taken together, the tales narrate the ongoing restructuring of built and lived spaces in highly diverse regions of what are generally referred to as the Global South and the Global North. Whereas the two parts of this volume are divided along this political and economic equator, the stories blur that very distinction, making it clear that the expansion of the free market has entangled developed as well as developing regions to the extent that such dichotomies no longer hold.<\/p>\n<p>The essays chart the course of capital-led development in settings such as Addis Ababa, Mumbai, Cairo, S\u00e3o Paulo, Dubai, Berlin, Paris, and Shanghai.<\/p>\n<p>After his lecture Cary Siress will be zooming in more specifically on the city of Cairo in a smaller informal setting.
