Description :
This paper looks at retailing from an urban analysis tradition. Located at the cross-roads between different approaches, this line of thought allows new insights in old urban questions and, at the same time, proposes new theoretical perspectives which relate tertiary activities with urban morphology. We will consider the small importance given by geographers to consumption in their research studies, then consumption as economic and social subject matter and the main structural changes undergone by distribuion sector.
