  What is a Global City? This volume interrogates the 'global cities' literature, which views the city as a shimmering, financial 'global network'. It presents a historical-ethnographic exploration of inter-ethnic relations in the 'other global' cities of Cairo, Beirut, Istanbul, Bukhara, Lhasa, Delhi, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and Tokyo.
