We propose to look at informality beyond simplistic associations of the phenomenon with a single category such as \"informal labour\" or \"corruption\". By doing this, we propose to look for a correlation between the emergence, and persistence, of some informal practices and the quality of governance in a given area. We also suggest that a better understanding of the variety of informal practices present in a region can help conceptualising more adequate interventions and eventually improve the socio-economic conditions of its inhabitants.  \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2021-12-19\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030824983\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-82499-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 374\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45588023083148,"sku":"9783030824983","price":116.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030824983.jpg?v=1775846702","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783030824983","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
