The Evolution of Cities

01The Evolution of Cities by Élisée Reclus

Published by Jura Media

English – 24 pages

Originally published in The Contemporary Review in 1895.

French geographer and anarchist Reclus takes us through a history of the development of urbanisation. Given the paper is 120 years old, the archaeological data available to the author may not be as well informed as more current analyses, and should best be viewed as an historical artefact than as an academic source.

This modest milestone is a surprisingly significant achievement – we’ve outlived 95% of anarchist bookstores and 99% of blogs by staying active this long.
