In any country the options for national urban and spatial development must be reviewed in light of the present urban system and spatial structure. This book aims to interpret urban and spatial development in Mexico from the pre-industrial era into the third quarter of the twentieth century. The book is divided into three parts, with an introductory chapter on the conceptual framework of the study. Part one describes the development of the modern urban system. Part two describes the structure of the modern urban system. Part three discusses the issues arising from the urban and spatial structure and reviews some of the options that might be considered in formulating a future urban and spatial strategy. Although the study is concerned specifically with Mexico, it is relevant for other countries in which similar problems will undoubtedly become increasingly urgent.
