Mere decades ago, the population of Guangzhou was almost wholly Chinese. Today, it is a truly global city, a place where people from around the world go to make new lives, find themselves, or further their careers. A large number of those migrants are small-scale traders from Africa who deal in Chinese goods—often knock-offs or copies of high-end branded items—to send back to their home countries. In The World in Guangzhou, Gordon Mathews explores the question of how the city became such a center of "low-end" globalization and shows what we can learn from that experience similar transformations elsewhere in the world.
Through detailed ethnographic portraits, Mathews reveals a world of globalization based on informality, reputation, and trust rather than on formal contracts. How, he asks, can such informal relationships emerge between two groups—Chinese and Sub-Saharan Africans—that don't share a common language, culture, or religion? And what happens when Africans move beyond their status as temporary residents and begin to put down roots and establish families?
Full of unforgettable characters, The World in Guangzhou presents a compelling account of globalization at ground level and offers a look into the future of urban life as transnational connections continue to remake cities around the world.

非常descriptive…
评分低端全球化中外国移民在广州的经验。没有任何学理分析，但是妙趣横生。
评分重庆大厦续篇，作者还是一如既往地单纯傻呼呼，但采访内容很有趣，作者对未来很乐观，尽管中国种族主义严重，极力阻止外国移民，但他认为中国一定会从ethnic国家变成civic国家，这是大国的必由之路。。。不管中国会怎么样，广州作为全球低端制造业中心确实在衰落，估计会让位给越南或印度的某个城市，广州的外国人又会搬去这些地方，终究只是昙花一现
评分作者还是麦高登，还是利用采访的手法调研了广州的小北和广元西路。仍旧是低端全球化，中国人和非洲人民的隔阂仍旧很深，这里有文化、宗教、种族的原因，从而引发出一系列的社会问题，但同时又是全球化不可避免的一环。
