| Tiivistelmä: | This study contributes to the current debate on the urban informal sector surrounding its heterogeneous structure, the range of urban employment forms, and the nature of its integration into the national and global economy. The author argues that these debates are characterized by a strong bias toward production and the manufacturing sector. This paper examines the way small vendors are linked to national and global systems of production and distribution and how it creates differences among informal workers with respect to income, profit levels, and socioeconomic well-being. |
