Abstract

[eng] Abstract This brief overview offers a typology of nineteenth-century American industrial cities. Next to the large city-large corporation type that became predominant after 1900 existed other models of urban-industrial development. One of these was the mill town, best exemplified by the New England textile center; another model was the large city with small, diversified industrial firms, such as Philadelphia and New York. This diversity testifies to the complexity of the processes of urbanization and industrialization, especially since this three-way structure remained largely intact well into the twentieth century. [fre] Résumé Ce survol met en lumière la diversité des types de ville industrielle aux États-Unis durant les années 1820-1880. La grande ville de la grande industrie ne constituait alors qu'une des voies possibles d'industrialisation urbaine, à côté du centre mono-industriel né autour de l'industrie textile, et de la grande ville de la petite industrie, comme New York ou Philadelphie. La typologie esquissée ici restitue leur complexité aux processus d'industrialisation et d'urbanisation, d'autant plus que les trois types de ville industrielle ici présentés ne disparurent pas après 1880.
