Urbanization in Latin America

Four theoretical approaches to the analysis of urbanization in Latin America are reviewed namely classical urban sociology dependency structuralism and Marxism. The author suggests that Marxism has the greatest potential as a framework for understanding urban and regional questions. The basic theoretical categories for the analysis of these issues are outlined and problems with the existing literature are detailed. (ANNOTATION)
