Abstract

The significance of "Megalopolis" needs to be understood in the context of the previous three decades of Gottmann's geographical research. This paper presents a reconstruction - after the book "La strada di Gottmann" - of the intellectual path of the geographer from his French education to his most known work, focusing especially on the years 1945 to 1955, to underline the elements of continuity in the evolution of his thought from human to political to urban geography.
