Description

Ports have been and continue to be critical in not just the global movement of goods, but also the global movement of ideas, social change and cultural phenomena including architecture and urban form.  Multiple forces are at play: technological requirements, elite preferences and working class needs, urban policy and globalization. Scholars from multiple disciplines explore similarities, dissimilarities and the ways in which sea-based networking influences urban landscapes and architecture, socio-economic and cultural development from the nineteenth to the twenty-first centuries.
