Abstract
The development of the urban system in Mexico since 1821 is analyzed. The "analysis attempts to treat the temporal and spatial diversity of the urban process by first presenting a chronological overview of urbanization for the country as a whole and then considering four important cases of urban development. The particular experiences of Mexico City, Oaxaca City, Merida, and Monterrey will serve to show the regional dimensions of urbanization since 1821 within the broader national and international context." excerptKeywords: Americas; Comparative Studies; Demography; Developing Countries; Geographic Factors; Historical Demography; Historical Survey; Latin America; Mexico; North America; Population; Research Methodology; Social Sciences; Spatial Distribution--changes; Studies; Urban Spatial Distribution; Urbanization--history
