Abstract: | This paper will present an analysis of urban structure in the Republic of Korea and Taiwan, which formed as these regions evolved into so-called newly-industrializing economies (NIEs). Generally speaking, developing countries do not experience the simultaneous progress of urbanization and industrialization as experienced by industrialized countries. In typical developing countries, over-urbanization seems to occur prior to industrialization with explosive expansion of primate cities and very rapid population inflow from the agricultural countryside. |
