This open access book is the first of its kind that examines the urban development trajectory, sustainability, and urban policies' role across seven different countries in Asia and Africa. It offers theoretical and policy contributions emerging from a rigorous analysis of conditions on the ground in each city, combined with a critical engagement with urban policy in the respective city/country. It examines key developments in national urban policy over the years and maps emerging urbanization trends, social cohesion and social inclusion, including public health and neighbourhood planning, particularly in light of the 2015 UN Sustainable Development Goals. It is an essential reading for graduate and post-graduate level students interested in urban studies, public policy, and urban planning.

This open access book provides recent trends of urbanization and inequality in Africa and Asia. It addresses the inequality challenges of urbanization and large-scale rural-to-urban migration. It answers questions around socio-economic and spatial inequalities and how serious those are in cities in Africa and Asia under 21st-century urbanization. Chapters demonstrate how the old neighborhood division in cities based on race, ethnicity, religion, apartheid, tribes, caste and migrant are replaced by social class through sorting in the housing market. The analyses go beyond the normal income inequality consideration and take a broader perspective on inequality by considering these issues at the neighborhood level to reveal the new spatial divisions in cities. As such, it is essential reading for academics and students in urban studies, sociology, geography, planning, and policymakers working on urban development around the world.
