This book explores the tenacity of Iran’s informal settlements
against the backdrop of the World Bank’s USD 80 million loan for
physical upgrading. Arefi seeks to identify and unravel the
distinctive models, policies, processes, and outcomes associated
with it, and explains why―despite obvious challenges―informal
settlements remain popular in Iran, and also how understanding them
in a broader theoretical context helps rectify existing
redevelopment policies in order to develop more effective
ones.
