Ian Yeboah finds a desakota-like pattern around Accra, whose sprawling form (188 percent increase in surface area in 1990s) and recent automobilization he attributes to the impact of structural adjustment policies.

      30 See overview in T. McGhee, “The Emergence of Desakota Regions in Asia: Expanding a Hypothesis,” in Northon Ginsburg, Bruce Koppell and T. McGhee (eds), The Extended Metropolis: Settlement Transition in Asia, Honolulu 1991. Philip Kelly, in his book on Manila, agrees with McGhee about the specificity of the Southeast Asian path of urbanization, but argues that desakota landscapes are unstable, with agriculture slowly being squeezed out. (Everyday Urbanization: The Social Dynamics of Development in Manila’s Extended Metropolitan Region, London 1999, pp. 284–86.)

      31 Adrian Aguilar and Peter Ward, “Globalization, regional development, and mega-city expansion in Latin America: Analyzing Mexico City’s peri-urban hinterland,”Cities 20:1 (2003), pp. 4, 18. The authors claim that desakota-like development does not occur in Africa: “Instead city growth tends to be firmly urban and large-city based, and is contained within clearly defined boundaries. There is not meta-urban or peri-urban development that is tied to, and driven by, processes, in the urban core.” (P. 5) But certainly Gautang (Witwatersrand) must be accounted as an example of “regional urbanization” fully analogous to Latin American examples.

It is important to note that the World Bank’s time series differs from Fabre’s, with a 1978 urbanization rate of 18 percent, not 13 percent.
