Bibliography for Adding Info

[edit]

Hello, I'm planning on adding some more info on this page. The following is a list of resources that I'm planning to use. Please let me know if you have any thoughts in regards to the sources before I make edits and additions. Thanks!

Planet of the Slums [1]

A good study of slums within various contexts; socially, economically, materially, politically, etc. Also includes mentions of the Philippines and various localities within the country that have slum developments and informal settlements.

Culture of improvisation: informal settlements and slum upgrading in a Metro Manila locality [2]

Specifically published by the University of the Philippines and can provide a more local context about slum dwellings and the efforts to improve the conditions within these areas.

Slum as a way of life : a study of coping behavior in an urban environment [3]

Another publication from the University of the Philippines that can provide more culturally-relevant perspectives in terms of the citizens and their coping mechanisms within the slums.
