The Global Encyclopaedia of Informality Volume I

This book invites you on a voyage of discovery, to explore society’s open secrets, to comprehend unwritten rules and to uncover informal practices. Broadly defined as ‘ways
of getting things done’, these informal yet powerful
practices tend to escape articulation in official discourse.
We have identified unique research into such practices
across area and across discipline, which charts the
grey zones and blurred boundaries, and distinguished
types of ambivalence and contexts of complexity.
Our Global Informality Project database is searchable
by region, keyword or type of practice. Do explore
what works and how, where and why!
