In a world characterized by large and rapidly evolving urban environments, the past and present challenges cities face is one of the key topics in our society. Cities are a world of differences and, consequently, of inequalities. At the same time cities remain, above all, the spaces of interactions among a variety of social groups, the places where poor, middle-class, and wealthy people, as well as elites, have coexisted in harmony or tension. Urban areas also form specific epidemiological environments since they are characterized by population concentration and density, and a high variety of social spaces from wealthy neighborhoods to slums. Inversely and coherently, cities develop answers in terms of sanitary policies and health infrastructures. This balance between risk and protective factors is, however, not at all constant across time and space and is especially endangered in periods of massive demographic growth, particularly periods of urbanization mainly led by immigration flows that transform both the socioeconomic and demographic composition of urban populations and the morphological nature of urban environments. Therefore this book is an unique contribution in which present day and past socio-demographic and health challenges confronted by big urban environments are combined. 410 0$aInternational Studies in Population,$x1871-0395 ;$v12 606 $aDemography 606 $aPublic health 606 $aUrban geography 606 $aDemography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X25000 606 $aPublic Health$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27002 606 $aUrban Geography / Urbanism (inc. megacities, cities, towns)$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15010 615 0$aDemography. 615 0$aPublic health. 615 0$aUrban geography. 615 14$aDemography. 615 24$aPublic Health. 615 24$aUrban Geography / Urbanism (inc. megacities, cities, towns). 676 $a304.6 702 $aRamiro Farin?as$b Diego$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aOris$b Michel$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910150455403321 996 $aNew Approaches to Death in Cities during the Health Transition$92523788 997 $aUNINA
