工业化时期是英国城市化进程中的重要阶段,自20世纪60年代以来,有关这一时期城市发展的研究引起了众多学者的长期关注。作为工业化时期英国城市体系的重要组成部分,小城镇在城市化进程中具有独特的地位和作用,但有关小城镇史的专门研究起步较晚。除了综合性的城市史研究,专门研究小城镇史的成果目前尚不多见,这表明小城镇史在英国城市史研究中是一个新兴领域。英国小城镇史研究的发展得益于城市史研究整体水平的提升,是城市史综合研究持续积累和深入研究的结果。与英国城市史研究深受美国跨学科研究影响一样,英国的小城镇史研究也体现了明显的跨学科特征。随着城市化进程和城市史研究的整体推进,小城镇史逐渐成为英国城市史研究的重要组成部分。
The industrialization period is an important stage in the process of urbanization in Great Britain. Since the 1960s, the research on urban development in this period has attracted the long-term concern of many scholars. As an important part of the urban system in the industrialized United Kingdom, small towns have a unique position and role in the process of urbanization. However, special studies on the history of small towns started later. In addition to the comprehensive study of urban history, the results of the study on the history of small towns are still rare at present. This shows that the history of small towns is an emerging field in the study of urban history in the United Kingdom. The development of the research on the history of small towns in the United Kingdom has benefited from the improvement of the overall level of urban history studies. It is the result of the continuous accumulation and thorough study of the comprehensive study of urban history. As well as being influenced by interdisciplinary research in the United States, the study of the history of small cities and towns in Britain also shows obvious interdisciplinary features. With the overall progress of urbanization and urban history research, the history of small towns has gradually become an important part of the study of urban history in the United Kingdom.
