Detailed studies of how the poor ‘make out’ in Third World cities have only recently emerged. Casual work must be seen within the context of the worker's relationship to large‐scale capitalism. It must also be understood in terms of the relationships which exist among such labourers themselves. This paper presents material on the nature of these latter kinds of linkages both within the city and between city and country. It is suggested that the character of linkages between domestic enterprises in the group studied have much to do with the volatile nature of the Peruvian economy. The concept of confederations of households is proposed for the description of the kind of interrelationships which occur. Les études détaillées qui décrit les moyens que les pauvres emploient à subsister aux villes du Tiers Monde ont récemment sorties. Main‐d'aeuvre temporaire doit être vu dans le relation des travailleurs au gros entrcprise du cpitalisme. Ça doit être aussi compris dans les relations qui existent entre les travailleurs eux‐mêmes. Cette épreuve se presente de matériel sur la nature de ces derniers types de liens, dans la ville et entre la ville et le paysage. I 1 est proposé que la caractère des liens entre des entreprises domestiques dans le groupe recherché a beaucoup à faire avec la nature volatile de l'économie peruvienne. L'idée des confédérutions des ménages est proposés pour la description des types des interrelations qui se produisent
