Abstract
— Economie forces and cultural constituents within commercial structures of islamic towns. — According to the work done by Eugen Wirth, islamic commercial structures make up a cultural complex of which the definitive constitution is relatively recent (14th-15th centuries). There is an analysis of the economic factors which presided in its formation, which specify its limits of validity according to the size of the urban organisms, which explain its recent transformations and provide an understanding of its total signification. These commercial structures give a good example of the way in which the constant, dynamic interaction of the cultural constituents and economic mechanisms models geographical realities.Keywords
