There is a growing literature on urban labour issues. Below is a list of some key documents (full credit to the authors, NOT ULN), which will be periodically updated and built upon. The Urban Labour Network cannot post all possible documents on urban labour; as it would require an active observatory, for which ULN does not have the necessary resources at this stage . Nevertheless, we are confident that the documents posted are valuable. We also count on the members of the Network to help update the list!
