Cities, Rural Migrants and the Urban Poor
Select Bibliography
[This is not at an exhaustive bibliography. The books, articles, and documents cited below refer to the issues and problems discussed in the proposal. Thus it does not include the general literature on urbanization and the urban poor. It lists material dealing with issues such as cities and migration, rural migrants as part of the urban poor population, select crucial policies with regard to the urban poor – particularly the rural migrants in the cities, reference material to relevant Chinese and other Asian experiences, select theoretical work, policies of giving identity to the migrants and shadowy urban poor population groups with a view to providing welfare measures, and finally issues related to the question of social justice and the city.]
