With a third of the global urban population already living in Dickensian slums, at least half under the age of twenty, Mike Davis explores the threat of disease, of forced settlement on hazardous terrains, and of state violence on huge populations. He shows also how poverty not only grew massively in the 1990s but how the gap between rich and poor countries expanded and how women and minorities fell further behind. Surveying the new urban poor from Bombay to Cairo, Cape Town to Rio de Janeiro, Mike Davis argues that this enormous population of marginalised labourers is not an industrious beehive of ambitious entrepreneurs but a stagnant ferment of extreme Darwinian competition which threatens to overflow the shanty-towns, and swamp the homes and businesses of the urban rich.

評分重新开启读书的生活，最近半个月读完两本书，先是一本政治人物的访谈录音整理，见证了中国的重大变局，这几天看的则是美国学者迈克.戴维斯的《布满贫民窟的星球》，是一本有关现代城市贫民窟现象的书。 “贫民窟”（Slum）是一个我们耳熟能详的词汇，它经常与贫困、混...

評分首先，很惭愧地说，居然九个月没写过书评了。真是无颜见江东父老。这期间也确实好像没读过书，无话可说。工作忙，生活忙，也不知道忙了些什么。很大的一个问题就是花了太多时间在各种屏幕前头，时间都被消耗。就连这本200页的书也拖拖拉拉搞了两个多月才看完。 此书在好两次会...

基本上列數字，不停quote彆人，but a helpful overview
评分Mike Davis is a typical urban-apocalyptic activist and he made a lot of criticism on the place (LA, California, where he is a native). An anti-wealthiness/power socialist, criticized the reformist as most of the reforms are tackling the superficial symptoms rather than the root: inequality. The arguments are too overwhelming for me.
