Synopsis

Company towns - towns that have developed around a single major industrial enterprize like General Motors or Siemens - mark the relationship between the expansion of production and the organization of a region from a different perspective. In addition to providing a general overview that identifies the basis of the problem within historical framework, from the beginning of the Industrial Age to the establishment of Ford's archetype assembly line, this study concentrates on certain significant cases. The research then encounters real and virtual examples, ranging from entertainment cities like Disneyworld to the Internet.
