U. of Colorado, Denver The research focuses upon 19th century industrialization and regional development in the United States. The primary objective is to determine the character and extent of rural-urban linkages and to document the mutual construction of city and countryside in two regional settings: eastern Iowa and northern Colorado. The research aims to trace the articulation of extraction and manufacturing within regional economies, highlight the centrality of resource-based industrialization to American economic growth and connect rural social and environmental change directly to the process of urban expansion. A comparative regional approach will be used to examine the development of rural -urban linkages. In addition a production based approach will be used to examine the formation and restructuring of commodity-specific chains of production, distribution and consumption that weave rural and urban space into a single territory. Data will be gathered from archival sources in both locales. The project will provide new knowledge and add to our theoretical understanding of the process of regional development and its urban and rural bases.

联合来自科罗拉多丹佛 研究的重点是19世纪世纪美国的工业化和区域发展。 主要目标是确定农村和城市的联系的性质和程度，并记录在两个区域设置的城市和农村的相互建设：东部爱荷华州和北方科罗拉多。 该研究旨在追踪区域经济中采掘业和制造业的联系，突出资源型工业化对美国经济增长的中心地位，并将农村社会和环境变化直接与城市扩张过程联系起来。 将采用一种比较性的区域办法来审查城乡联系的发展情况。 此外，还将采用基于生产的办法，审查将农村和城市空间连成一片的具体商品的生产、分配和消费链的形成和结构调整。 将从两地的档案来源收集数据。 该项目将提供新的知识，并增加我们对区域发展进程及其城市和农村基础的理论理解。
