Marcel Roncayolo: In the Footsteps of a Singular Geographer

This book is a vibrant tribute to Marcel Roncayolo (1926–2018), a geographer and thinker whose written work has influenced over half a century of urban studies. Bringing together contributions from among his chief successors, it explores the fundamental principles upon which Roncayolo built his singular body of thought. His approach, characterized by a methodology tailored to urban research, an analysis that interweaves time, space, and society, and an interdisciplinary approach, has left a lasting impact on the field.
