Abstract:

This dissertation examines the relationship between the Arkadian city of Megalopolis and the Achaian koinon in the Hellenistic period. By arguing that Megalopolis was a polis which used its own local identity to carve out a prominent position for itself within the Achaian federation, this thesis is able to provide new insights into the study of the wider topic of the relationship between federations and their member states. To support this argument, the thesis is divided into three parts. In part one of the dissertation, the Megalopolitan identity is clearly established by identifying its basi

Although urban living had its advantages, it was soon realized that it did not resolve the matters of institutional racism, discrimination and poverty. As a result, the subjectivity of urban African Americans is uniquely influenced by their cosmopolitan identities. New York City's ethnic c

Abstract:

Since Gottmann published his pioneering work on megalopolises in 1957, the significance of the concept has been recognized over the last six decades. The concept has inspired a variety of terms used to describe large-scale urbanized forms – such as ‘mega-city regions’, ‘megaregions’ and ‘polycentric urban regions’. Despite the recent resurgent interest in these terms, the two key features that Gottmann (1961, 1976) ascribed to megalopolises have been often neglected in recent literature - their being the ‘hub’ that links national to international urban systems and the ‘incubator’ within nation

Abstract:

This dissertation is a geographical analysis of development of the West Coast Megalopolis and its effect on the redistribution of population both nationally, and within the western United States. Since the 1960s and 1970s, population migration trends within the United States have been increasingly influenced by the emergence of a bi-coastal population core consisting of the traditional core region of the Northeastern Megalopolis and the burgeoning concentration of population along the Pacific Coast. This dissertation shows that the migration subsystems of the large Pacific Coast cities are the

In particolare, studiando i piani urbanistici e il loro concretizzarsi all’interno della città, si sono volute dare soluzioni al crescente bisogno di alloggi, causato dall’aumento di popolazione.
