Histoire Urbaine is the only historical journal in France devoted to the urban world from antiquity to the present day both in Europe and elsewhere. Published primarily in French, but also in other languages, it welcomes the work of French and foreign academicians of any discipline, and chronologic or geographic focus that treats the historicity and other aspects of urban reality: economic, social, political, and cultural.
