This book will seek to close the gaps on the role of France in exporting Eurocentric
spatial and environmental design principles and practice. It does so by analyzing
the major spatial and physical development projects that French colonial authorities
implemented in France?s colonial empire and elsewhere from the 15th to the 20th century.
French urban planning ideology, principles and practice were not exported exclusively
to territories under French colonial suzerainty. Accordingly, the book focuses on
major physical and spatial planning schemes inspired by French planning thought in
territories without a history of French colonialism
