The early industrial city was when urban order had to be explicitly taught

Evidence

Rather it is the early industrial city, with the appearential order breaking down and the spatial order only beginning to emerge; it is the early industrial city, with its massive hordes of rural peasants becoming urbanites overnight; it is the early industrial city that is the setting for the massive and explicit teaching of city ways. — Lyn H. Lofland, World of Strangers_ Order and Action in…, 659

• XREF: Parallels how the modern metropolis likewise breaks prior order before new codes emerge — the same breakdown-then-rebuild arc as the readers’ flâneur analysis.
• SEED: Essay angle: moments when city codes are explicitly taught (immigrant letters, theater etiquette posters) reveal the normally invisible grammar of urban behavior.
