Cities



Cities are population aggregates that do not produce for themselves the means of subsistence. From their origins, the existence of cities is based on a technical, social and spatial division of production and involves exchanges of various kinds between those who produce subsistence and those who produce manufactured goods, symbolic goods, power and protection. Urbanization dynamics is linked to the potential interaction offered by cities, its urbanity, ie the power that produces the grouping of large number of people in the same place.
