The Centre for Urban History, University of Leicester
This series examines from an international perspective key themes in the historic development of cities and societies. The series is principally, although not ex- clusively, concerned with the European city, with an emphasis on the early modern and modern periods, and it will consider urban systems, structures and processes. Individual volumes will bring together and present in an accessible form the best work of the wide variety of scholars from different disciplines and nations currently engaged in research on urban history. The series is published by Cambridge University Press and Editions de la Maison des Sciences de l'Homme in association with the Centre for Urban History, University of Leicester. The Wrst volumes in the series include collections of commissioned pieces organized around certain key themes that lend themselves to comparative analysis. They have a substantive introduction by the volume editor/s, making explicit linkages between individual essays and setting out the overall significance and context of the work. Themes in International Urban History will interest scholars and students in a variety of sub-disciplines within social and economic history, geography, sociology and urban planning. It rides on the wave of important and exciting new developments in the study of cities and their history, and reflects the growing internationalization of the area of study.Titles already published
