Workshop: “Industry and the City in Europe and Japan Tokyo, Paris, London, Kyoto and Osaka 1770-1930”
This workshop seeks to explore the interface of industry with the urban fabric in a comparative perspective.The goal is to bring together emerging research on Japanese urban industrial cities with research results on their counterparts in France and England.
Specifically, the workshop will focus on mapping of the industrial activity onto the urban fabric of Tokyo, Paris, London, Osaka. Our investigation will revolve around the following questions: How does industrial activity invest a city? How does industry map onto an existing urban fabric? If and how does it map onto existing artisanal spaces? How intensification of industrial activity recasts old and forges new spatial configurations in an urban setting?
