Publisher Notes
For the past two centuries, global economic, political, and cultural forces have been instrumental in the shaping of cities, patterns of urbanization, and the physical and spatial forms of the built environment. Urbanism, Colonialism and the World-Economy documents the cultural and spatial links between the metropolitan core and colonial periphery, and draws attention to the role of colonialism in creating the spatial features of former colonial territories as well as urban systems.
