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.

讀後感
起卡夫卡；至於老上海，它永遠都活在張愛玲的筆下；而巴黎這座光明之城，當然是屬於本雅明的了。在我們的想像裏面，這些城市和那些作家之間的故事簡直要比梁祝還浪漫，生死相許，可歌可泣。 所以今天的遊客去了布拉格一定躲不掉印著卡夫卡頭像的T恤。要是到了上海，有人會不辭...
評分本书更像是作者列出主题脉络，然后寻找各种材料把它填满。当然佩服作者运用材料的能力，以及研究能力。 另外，全世界贪婪的人都是一样一样的。即使身处不同的文明，但是所有能想象到的贫民窟的真相，全世界都是一样的。 对于我国的叙述，这方面平时没有特别关注研究文献，倒是...
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...
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...

最後來瞭一把無政府。夠嗆。 前麵的分析還是挺到位的
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.
