Reviews

This is a great intellectual product. Its main premise is that everyday lived experiences are neither sufficiently noticed nor accounted for in the crafting of urban policy agendas at the global level, and this book takes a bold step toward this objective. Daniel K. B. Inkoom, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, AAPS former Chair Seen through the lens of the everyday in urban Africa as representing a multitude of both daily practices and realities, as well as a generative epistemic framework, this book brings together a varied set of thought-provoking contributions. Together, they call for a move beyond the “business as usual” of development by urging us to rethink the global norms that drive the global post-2015 agenda. An important read for scholars and policymakers alike. Sylvia Croese, Assistant Professor of Global and International Studies, University of California, Irvine and editor of Localizing the SDGs in African Cities
