title: [Recent trends of population development in the French urban system].
abstract: "The paper analyses the population development of French urban agglomerations of more than 50,000 inhabitants over the last three decades (1962-90).  Trends of net migration, natural increase and total population change are examined with respect to different functional and structural city types.  The results show changes of long established growth patterns:  an overall decrease of urban growth rates in the seventies and the resurgence of the growth of the largest metropolitan areas in the eighties."
