Abstract
[spa] El objetivo de este trabajo es el análisis de la evolución de la población durante los últimos cuarenta años (1970-2011) de las 64 principales áreas urbanas españolas con el objetivo de elaborar una tipología de áreas urbanas en función del crecimiento de sus centros y periferias. Las áreas urbanas analizadas son las definidas por el Atlas Estadístico de las Áreas Urbanas que están formadas por más de un municipio. La atención se centra en dos grandes fenómenos (suburbanización e inmigración extranjera) que, actuando en conjunto, han marcado la evolución reciente de las áreas estudiadas, formando patrones geográficos bien diferenciados espacialmente.
[eng] The main aim of this paper is to analyse how population growth of the greatest Spanish metropolitan areas has changed in the last forty years (1970-2011). Therefore, using the Atlas Estadístico de las Áreas Urbanas definitions, 64 urban areas which have more than one munici- pality are studied. In each of the cases core city and periphery growth levels have been separately analysed so that an urban growth typology can be built. Paper mainly focuses on two phenomena, suburbanisation and foreign immigration, as they have both been the main elements defining re- cent urban growth transformations and have created clearly defined spatial patterns.
