Contemporary urban studies engages a wide range of approaches in
the analysis of the processes at work in urban areas. These
approaches derive from anthropology, economics, geography, history,
politics and sociology as well as from the professional experience
of town planning and architecture. Social process and the city
reflects this growing cross-disciplinary engagement. This shows the
important, problematic, role which cities in particular, and urban
change in general have played in the growth of Australia. The
overriding concern of each essay in this collection is to develop
an understanding of the ways urban areas function and an awareness
of how differing interpretations of 'urban phenomena' might be
applied. This attention to the nature of the forces at work, and
the processes these forces manifest themselves in, is extended both
empirically and conceptually. This book was first published in
1983.
