Recenzii

“Setting out a critique of Western urban planning models as applied to African cities, while recognizing not only the positive contributions of economic informality but also articulating its indigenous characteristics, and at the same time asserting women’s agency and dynamism as a basis for new models in advancing urban growth is ambitious for such a slim volume, yet is precisely what Mary Njeri Kinyanjui’s incisive observation and analysis achieves in this concise, groundbreaking work.”
