Lahore in the 21st Century: The functioning and development of a megacity in the global south

Abstract

In the world of urban studies and history, it is not uncommon for researchers and writers to draw from established frameworks as points of inquiry. However, in “Lahore in the 21st Century,” Qadeer presents a refreshing departure from this norm. What sets this book apart is its original analytical framework, one specifically tailored to the vibrant city of Lahore. Qadeer’s work is an exploration of the internal dynamics of urban development in Lahore, and it offers readers a unique perspective on how the city functions.
