Circulation des hommes et urbanisation

Abstract

Circulation of persons and urbanization : policy failures. There has been an undeniable slow down in growth in the capitals, but this is certainly not the case with the general rate of urbanization. However, changes in the forms and effects of the urbanization process are underway, at its point of origin in the countryside as well as in the conditions of integration in the cities. The traditional rural-urban division has never been more pertinent than it is today. The economic and financial means of handling the crisis result in phenomena of demographic and social redistribution which affect the political balance. It is more necessary than ever to go over sectorial interventions which effects on mobility and urbanization are often substantial but which, in most cases, ignore the population variable. Thus, a field of research on how to succeed in integrating population-urbanization-development is open.
