A panoramic and thoroughly researched account—at once ambitious and accessible—of the urban migrations that are reshaping our world.
What will be remembered about our century, perhaps more than anything except global warming, is the final shift of human populations from agricultural life to cities, the effects of which are being felt around the world. Arrival City gives us an on-the-ground view of this phenomenon—from Maryland to Shenzhen, from the favelas of Rio to the shanty towns of Mumbai, from Los Angeles to Nairobi. Doug Saunders introduces us to the migrants themselves, and with the aid of their stories elucidates their essential part in the economic fabric. He makes clear that the cities and nations that provide citizenship and opportunity to migrants stand to benefit as the migrant class evolves into a middle class, and he explains why those that ignore these people will see increased social unrest, poverty, and religious fundamentalism.
Blending intimate personal portraits with brilliant social analysis, Arrival City will change the way we think about globalization.

落腳城市的本質 (信報‧ 副刊‧ 文化﹕ 2011年4月9日) 本書所指稱的「落腳城市」在很多時候都是那些被稱為「貧民窟」的城郊邊緣,但「落腳城市」並不等於「貧民窟」。後者往往予人絕望、負面的印象,正如邁克‧戴維斯在《布滿貧民窟的星球》裡舉出許多貧民窟的衝突問題...
評分人类社会似乎进入了一个经济高速发展的时期,传统的乡村自给自足经济已经无法满足人类的物质需求,很多地区的发展模式与英国史上“第二次圈地运动”有相似之处,由小农经济向农场经济转变,现代化农业方式带来的劳动力剩余,贫困地区的人口外出寻找生机,带来了大规模的劳...
評分这是我读的书里第一本从目录里看不出逻辑的书。阅读后也确实如此:本书章节间并没有什么内容上的联系,基本是类比的关系。 说实话,我真的不知道该怎么定义这本书,或许最贴切的名称是“说明书”——整本书基本就是对各个国家、地区落脚城市的描述、记录,阅读后给我的印象就...
評分“落脚城市”是一个善意的名词,它区别于“城中村”、“贫民窟”、“移民聚落”等倾向歧视性的称谓,为那些充满希望、期冀融入主流社会的外来者所聚居的区域标明,这是过渡性的空间,其所蕴含的巨大潜力与能量远超出我们的想象。道格•桑德斯的《落脚城市:最后的人类大迁...
