Items related to Urban Development: Theory, Fact and Illusion
Synopsis
This is a study of the economics of development and urbanization. Its two principal themes are 1) that simple economic factors explain the spatial location of populations and industries in different countries at different times, and 2) that developing countries create crowded urban areas inadvertently by building large cities that draw people from the countryside who do not find the jobs they come seeking. It reports original theoretical and empirical research.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This in-depth study of the economics of urbanization and development explores the key characteristics of urban-rural patterns of production and consumption in developing countries--particularly Brazil, China, and India--as well as government policies affecting urbanization. Drawing on a wealth of theoretical and empirical research, Henderson investigates rural-urban migration, changes in the production patterns in cities, the drain of skilled workers from smalltowns, individual city restrictions on growth and entry, and other phenomena. This is a study of the economics of development and urbanization. Its two main themes are 1) that economic factors explain the spatial location of populations and industries in different countries at different times, and 2) that developing countries create crowded urban areas by building large cities that draw people from the countryside.
