Le point sur les recherches en morphologie urbaine au début des années 1990. Sujet d'études qui suscite un regain d'intérêt dans plusieurs disciplines : géographie, planification et histoire de l'aménagement, architecture et histoire urbaine

The data basis for functional-morphological analyses has considerably broadened (census statistics, etc.). The positions of the mid-Békés towns in the settlement network have changed. Functions modified at a more rapid rate than morphology. (DLO).

The purpose of this interdisciplinary article is to present a structural unit of urban space termed the morphomark, as a concept adopted from urban morphology. The article compiles concepts of space, as these reflect morphological processes
of the interdisciplinary study of spatial (natural and social) structure. The article reproduces morphology as a subject area of the disciplines for which the study of forms are common. Urban morphology as an art of urban forms is also discussed. – (BJ)

This study reviews the aims, methods and trends of settlement geography focusing on the internal structures of settlements in Hungary. The theoretical and methodological development of the discipline streches from morphological predominance
to the investigation of the spatial structure of the society. Tibor Mendöl's method, the so-called functional morphology, which essentially tried to find out the relationship between urban functions and morphology, received a main role in this evolutionary process
. While pure morphological research has been gradually neglected the attention of Hungarian geographers has turned to urban social questions, mainly as an outcome of the appearance of social geography. Nowadays the problems of the built environment

This article investigates the morphological evolution of Sudanese and involves consideration of town planning, building form, and the pattern of land and building utilization.It identifies three broad morphologies: indigenous, African-Islamic
, and European style (colonial). The ongoing, rapid urbanization of African cities in general and Sudanese cities in particular points to a need to understand the structure of this urbanization. The morphology of cities includes not only physical structure
, but the cultural heritage, economic, and historical values on which it is based. Therefore, preservation, redevelopment, and urban policy underlying future urban expansion must be based on the nature of cities’ morphologies and development.

A. discusses of the classical urban model of Tibor Mendöl, who investigated the physical (morphological) structure of the cities on the Great Hungarian Plain. His main motive was to find out the internal functional pattern of these rather peculiar
settlements. Mendöl named this famous and often debated method functional-morphology. In this system small scale functional elements were classified and amalgamated into functional groupes, which constitued the different urban zones within cities. Linking
urban morphology and functional pattern with the paradigm of human ecology was a revolutionary step forward in settlement geography. - (JS)
