Abstract

This contribution examines the management of urban development in two Asian metropolitan regions against the background of globalization. Although there are substantial differences in context, recent developments in both Pune Metropolitan Region in India and Metro Cebu in the Philippines can largely be explained by their integration into the financial and commodity circuits of the global economy. Globalization, however, comprises more than economic inclusion. At the level of policy ideas, we see the introduction of principles of governance emphasizing greater participation of civil society groups in urban management. Operating within existing patron--client frameworks, however, the involvement of non-governmental organizations and community-based/peoples’ organizations has unintended, exclusionary effects. We trace these here in the areas of participatory planning and access to basic needs, especially housing.
