Description

Explore the deep connections between human movement and the development of global port cities in this academic volume from Routledge Advances in Urban History. Spanning the eras of sail and steam from 1570 to 1940, this book examines how port cities functioned as essential nodes for the exchange of goods, people, and ideas. This study looks at how migrants shaped the urban-maritime world. Beyond the movement of commercial goods and seeds, the text examines the transmission of technological knowledge, scientific advancements, and even biological factors like bacteria and viruses. It provides a look at how these microcosms of the global world were built and perceived. Readers will gain insight into how migrant populations contributed to the physical built environment and the unique sociocultural settings of port cities. By studying these historical exchanges, the book offers a detailed view of how mobility and agency helped construct the modern urban landscape through centuries of maritime history.
