Research Abstract |
This research project aims to provide a comparative understanding of historical characteristics of traditional cities in Japan, France, England, China and India between the 16th and 19th centuries, and to further promote global exchange of the urban historical methodology among multi-national scholars or researchers. In order to implement these objectives, we focus on the basic factors and mechanism of social cohesion in cities such as Edo, Paris, London etc., and examine their'socio-spatial structure' which resulted the massive scale of urbanization. We also try to collect historical documents principally related to the social and spatial characteristics of traditional cities and make the results of our efforts commonly available to the academic world.
