Fresh Perspectives On Urban Dynamics: The Case Of Ulaanbaatar (Mongolia) And Le Havre (France)

Résumé

Through the example of various measurements and a comparative study of the
urban areas of two cities, Ulaanbaatar and Le Havre, this paper intends to illustrate the
ways in which comparative urban geography studies can improve the urban planning
strategy. Other aims of this paper are to describe how this collaboration has been
established and to present both cities and their urban characteristics, and, finally to
prove, despite the two very different urban shapes, the interest of a scientific
collaboration.
