This book contributes to the development of new architectural approaches to informal neighborhoods and to a better understanding of human habitats that relate spatial issues to broader economic and political questions. The authors analyze feasible and effective practical actions located in Africa, Latin America, and India, drawing upon empiric work to contextualize existing neighborhoods. Complementing essays explore the deeply intertwined nature of spatial practice, cultural identity, and social engagement. They uncover new modes of making architecture and map new ways for architects to engage with contested communities. They address geographic differentiations on a local scale, rather than between various continents only, and explore interconnections between particular neighborhoods and their wider contexts.
