Abstract

In an effort to gain an improved understanding of the systematic interrelationships that abound in national processes of urbanization, agricultural change and spatial concentration during the course of economic development, IIASA's research task on Population, Resources and Growth is focusing on: the demographics of rapid urbanization, the associated demoeconomic dualistic developmental antecedents, and the resource-service demands that spatial concentrations of human activities generate. A great deal more needs to be known about these three processes before convincing evidence can be marshalled for or against rapid rates of urbanization.
