Based on empirical studies, this book investigates the particular urban history of the North from the 17th century until today in a comparative, Northern perspective.
Urban Life in Nordic Countries is the result of a conference on "Urbanity in the Periphery" held in Stockholm on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Institute of Urban History at Stockholm University, aimed at establishing the field of the urban history of the North and creating a network of urban historians of the North.
