Cities on the Move is an essay by historian Arnold Joseph Toynbee, published by Alianza Editorial. In this book, Toynbee explores the evolution of cities throughout history, from the city-states of antiquity to modern metropolises. He analyzes how cities have been centers of power, culture, and commerce, and how they have influenced the development of civilization. The author examines the reasons behind the choice of cities, their role as melting pots of races and cultures, and their transformation into mechanized cities. He also reflects on the future of the world-city.
