Jeb Brugmann publications

May 2009 - What does it mean that half the world’s people now live in cities—and that two billion more will join them over the next 25 years? How does this change the way the world works? In Welcome to the Urban Revolution, Jeb Brugmann draws on two decades of fieldwork to offer an eye-opening anatomy of our urbanising planet. Taking readers on a street-level tour of the world’s cities, Brugmann challenges conventional thinking about globalisation and reveals cities as the medium for revolutionary change.
