Discuss the evolution and impact of urban systems through the three main phases of

development—Urbanisation during the industrial revolution, the modern city, and the

postmodern-global city—and analyse how these phases have shaped contemporary urban

environments.

The Evolution and Impact of Urban Systems: From Industrial Revolution to Postmodern-

Global City

Urban systems have undergone profound transformations across three main phases of

development: Urbanisation during the Industrial Revolution, the rise of the modern city, and the

emergence of the postmodern-global city. Each phase has not only shaped the physical and social

structures of cities but also influenced the broader patterns of economic, cultural, and

environmental dynamics in contemporary urban environments.

Urbanisation During the Industrial Revolution

The Industrial Revolution, beginning in the late 18th century, marked the first significant wave

of urbanisation. This period was characterized by a massive migration of people from rural areas

to urban centers, driven by the promise of employment in newly established factories. The rapid

growth of cities like Manchester, Birmingham, and Liverpool in the United Kingdom

exemplified this transformation, with urban populations expanding at unprecedented rates.

During this phase, cities became the epicenters of economic activity, with industrial production

at the heart of urban life. The urban landscape was dominated by factories, railways, and densely

packed worker housing. However, this rapid urbanisation also brought significant challenges.
