Abstract

Development and changes in the international environment and China's specific national conditions, the 21st century, the accelerated development of China's urbanization process is a very unique system works great. It is extremely rich in content, need to study many problems. The guidance of scientific concept of development, from the perspective of the overall development strategy to examine, at least three strategic basis for further study and practice. First, China's urbanization rate of development, both the acceleration, but also should be "balanced urbanization" of the speed, the so-called "balanced urbanization" of speed, that the requirements of national economic development objectives through the urbanization phase balanced supply and demand, and achieve urban marginal benefit equals marginal aggregate cost of gathering dynamic equilibrium urbanization rate; Second, the fundamental driving force of China's urbanization, new industrialization is caused by the evolution of industrial structure under market demand; Third, China's accelerating urbanization, the spatial layout of urban development regionalization and regional urbanization. The city's macro-regional distribution of China's new urban development area is the micro aspects of urbanization in each city developments and changes in spatial structure, namely the suburbs with the type of urban and rural development. An acceleration of urbanization will be a distinguishing Systematic Work in China in the 21st century, under the international environment and domestic conditions. It involves many details and problems which need study. With scientific notion of development, we observe it in an overall light, and find there are at least three basic considerations which require a thorough investigation and some practice. Firstly, the speed of the urbanization in China should be considered. We need to keep an even or smooth pace, which can be called a "balanced urbanization", which means maintaining aggregate equilibrium while achieving our urbanization targets, and weighting the marginal benefit with the marginal coat of assembling. Secondly, the engine of Chinese urbanization is the growing market demand caused by the structural changes under the new industrialization. And thirdly, the space arrangement of urbanization should reflect both regionalization of the cities and urbanization of rural areas. The former will be the new pattern of Chinese urbanization; and the later will be space rearrangement within every city. This is a kind of combined development of both urban and rural areas
