Revisiting "Southern" Sprawl

Given its unpredictable nature, urban sprawl in the Mediterranean region is considered an intriguing (and intricate) socioeconomic issue.Since the 1970s, urban dispersion advanced rapidly in southern Europe-irrespective of a city's size and morphology-withurbanization rates growing faster than...
