This session aims to revisit the evolution of urban-rural relations in premodern Europe. The key objective is to examine the interdependence between cities and towns and their rural hinterlands and how this relationship shaped environmental, demographic, economic and social dynamics on both sides (cf. Fulkerson and Thomas 2021). In particular, ecological dynamics driven by the urban demand for resources – for example, food, water, and energy – add a new perspective to the existing literature (e.g. Bailey and Rigby 2011; Wilkin et al. 2015).
