Urbanization & Trade Routes of Rajasthan

Urbanization & Trade Routes of Rajasthan

Urbanization forms one of the most important watersheds in the phases of historical growth and events. A study of urbanization, it’s economic, political, social and religious linkages and other variables is a field yet untapped. An attempt has been made in this book to discuss some aspects of urbanization and its role in shaping history. Similarly, trade routes also shaped the economy and polity of a certain period. Major trade route became centers of urban units. Inter-relations of urbanization and trade-route forms the major focus of the book, which is an outcome of the ideas exchanged at the National Seminar on “Urbanization and Trade Routes : With Special Reference to Rajasthan”, Organized by Department of History, Jai Narain Vyas University, Jodhpur.
