Robert Neuwirth

Robert Neuwirth is a journalist and author whose adventurous writings on street economies around the world question traditional notions of economics and global development. He has written two books – Stealth of Nations and Shadow Cities – and is at work on a new volume chronicling community and collective action as economic values. Before becoming a writer, Neuwirth studied philosophy, worked as a community organizer, was an assembly line laborer, and played the French Horn.
