城市化的历史特征是人口密度、持久的建筑环境、治理、专门的经济活动、城市基础设施及其对农村的影响。本章重点介绍了与这些维度相关的主要当代模式、趋势、过程和理论，并特别关注中心地区与周边农村地区的关系。它首先讨论了与城市住区和当代城市模式的不同方面有关的定义问题。本文首先简要介绍了经济空间理论，然后提出了与城市格局和城市化进程的这些主要特征相对应的理论和政策。重点是中心地理论，其中城市被概念化为中心市场的地方提供商品和服务，以换取粮食和材料的低阶城市和农村荒地。讨论了技术和基础设施的进步对全球贸易联系的影响，并强调了卡斯特的网络社会的见解。两个城市政策的经验证据-紧凑的城市模型和城市增长管理-审查他们的连接到中心地理论。
Urbanization has historically been characterized by population density, durable built environments, governance, specialized economic activities, urban infrastructures, and their rural spheres of infl uence. This chapter highlights major contemporary patterns, trends, processes, and theories related to these dimensions, with special attention to the relation of central places to surrounding rural areas. It begins with a discussion of defi nitional issues related to the different dimensions of urban settlements and contemporary urban patterns. Theories and policies corresponding to these major characteristics of urban patterns and urbanization processes are presented, beginning with a brief overview of economic spatial theories. Focus is given to central place theory, where cities are conceptualized as central market places providing goods and services to lowerorder cities and their rural hinterlands in exchange for food and materials. The impact of advances in technology and infrastructures on global trade connections is discussed, and insights from Castells’ network society are highlighted. Empirical evidence of two urban policies—the compact city model and urban growth management—are reviewed for their connections to central place theory.
