Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 11

Abstract

Urbanization in India is neither unique nor exclusive but is similar to a world-wide phenomenon. Urbanisation is referred to as a process in which an increasing proportion of population lives in cities and the suburban of the cities (Sivaramakrishnan, 2005). Indian urbanization has proceeded as it has elsewhere in the world as a part and product of economic change. Occupational shift from agriculture to urban-based industry and services is one part of the change. The processes of urbanization and counter-urbanization refer to the stages of growth and decline of the demographic and economic aspects of cities. The process of urbanization starts with early industrialization when people migrate from rural to urban areas. It proceeds with industrial expansion and the proportion of urban population increases. Urbanization starts with early industrialization when people migrate from rural to urban areas proceeding with industrial expansion and proportionate increase of urban population. He also critiqued those theorists that highlighted the decline in the process of urbanization by means of the model that uses demographic and economic aspects of understanding city growth.
