This collection of essays provides a review and restatement of concepts and analytical insights about the relations between the dynamics of the production system and urban society. A number of questions underline the arrangement of the book, and constitute the central debates in the individual chapters. These questions include: how have large cities and city systems developed in the context of economic globalization and the restructuring processes of the international economy?; what are the restructuring strategies of firms within the urban economy?; how have social and political harmonization and polarization in urban society been affected by entrepreneurial strategies?; and what has been the response of other urban participants, and in particular local authorities to economic restructuring?
Pour rédiger une thèse, un mémoire ou un ouvrage, un long travail de recherche est nécessaire pour trouver la littérature qui fait le point sur les grandes questions qui encadrent un thème de recherche. Par ailleurs, aujourd'hui, une recherche en sociologie nécessite de regarder au-delà des frontières disciplinaires (anthropologie, sciences politiques, géographie, etc.). L'auteur propose donc ce guide pratique qui recense et regroupe 378 auteurs et quelques milliers d'ouvrages rédigés en langue française et qui couvrent tous les domaines et champs de la sociologie. Nul doute que ce recueil, exhaustif, clair et à double entrée (par auteur ou matière), deviendra un outil de travail précieux aux chercheurs et étudiants.

Darlene L. Brooks Hedstrom offers a new history of the field of Egyptian monastic archaeology. It is the first study in English to trace how scholars identified a space or site as monastic within the Egyptian landscape and how such identifications impacted perceptions of monasticism. Brooks Hedstrom then provides an ecohistory of Egypt's tripartite landscape to offer a reorientation of the perception of the physical landscape. She analyzes late-antique documentary evidence, early monastic literature, and ecclesiastical history before turning to the extensive archaeological evidence of Christian monastic settlements. In doing so, she illustrates the stark differences between idealized monastic landscape and the actual monastic landscape that was urbanized through monastic constructions. Drawing upon critical theories in landscape studies, materiality and phenomenology, Brooks Hedstrom looks at domestic settlements of non-monastic and monastic settlements to posit what features makes monastic settlements unique, thus offering a new history of monasticism in Egypt.
