Living with Risk by Tamaki Endo

Pacific Affairs invited me to review a new book entitled Living with Risk: Precarity & Bangkok’s Urban Poor by Tamaki Endo, a Japanese scholar. It’s a great read for those with an interest in urbanization and poverty alleviation. What’s also nice is that it cites a lot of Japanese-language scholarship on these issues, which might not normally be accessible to other audiences. The full text of my review can be viewed here.
