Abstract: Global city-regions in least and highly developed countries are said to have homogenised visions in their reorganisation of urban space, but in reality they differ drastically in terms of consequences. This can be demonstrated with special reference to the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR). Planned integration of the MMR in the early 1990s into the world system has resulted in massive breakdowns in the indigenous space-economy leading to deeper changes in the socioeconomic and politico-cultural structures of the peri-urban areas.
