Abstract
The international transfer of urban technology: does the North have anything to offer for the global environmental crisis? explores the contradictions posed by the North's insistence on the primacy of the "new" atmospheric problems at a time when the vast majority of the world's people still struggle with the far more immediate environmental problems of inadequate water, food and shelter. The paper also compares and contrasts the environmental priorities in Toronto and Dakar.Keywords
