Abstract
The territorial evolution of Bârlad town. This article proposes an analysis for the territorial evolution of Bârlad town, since his early foundation until present, considering the natural conditions, the political, historical, economical and demographical factors. Its first establishment as a bourg (“targ”) needs to be linked to the rural settlement of Prodana, while its following territorial evolution is subordinated to the influence of different factors such as: its geographical position on the commercial roads, the climatic favorability, agricultural soils productivity and fertility rates. The most profound transformations of its image as a town are registered between 1944 - 1977, being conditioned by the political factor, the industrialization process and the demographic increment linked mainly to the rural emigration. After 1989, the extension of its urban limits was slackened by administrative factors, especially by the retrenchment of its administrative territory, which determined a systematization of its further and present territorial expansion.
