Book Presentation
The aim of this study is to approach an understanding of European
urban structure and, in particular, its main centres - metropolitan
agglomerations generated by the urban and functional expansion of
traditional cities beyond their administrative boundaries. Nowadays,
it is in these urban zones that most of the population and activities
are concentrated, drawing together and revitalising their respective
regional and national surroundings, and operating as nodes for a
world network of relations that is continually becoming more interconnected.
The diversity of names used to describe these areas /zones, conurbations,
regions, agglomerations, metropolis ...) illustrates the complexity
of the phenomenon and the difficulties in approaching them using
homogenous and universal strategies. The numerous studies of the
question and the variety of conceptual and methodological focuses
(physical, socio-economic, functional criteria, etc.) provide more
than a sufficient confirmation of that complexity.
The aim of this study is limited to the identification of European
urban concentrations, their physical boundaries and the corresponding
determination of their basic dimensions.
Apart from the interest that this holds for making primary comparisons
between different urban realities, it also constitutes an essential
preliminary step towards the realisation of other, more complete,
studies.
