The recent proliferation of informal cities, favelas, and illegal and ad hoc housing in cities around the world is a physical manifestation of the widening gulf between the haves and the have-nots. Explore how contemporary architects are responding to this humanitarian, economic, and political crisis using small-scale, grass-roots design strategies in six cities: Mumbai, Hong Kong, New York, Lagos, Rio de Janeiro, and Istanbul.
