New urbanization different from the manufacturing based urban growth has been widely discussed in post-modern city, consumption city and others to reflect the urban changes in qualitative manner. Urbanization stage models consider large cities to be in mature stage, reurbanization and the stages are assumed to be experienced successively in lower sized cities. However, since the industrial restructuring implies new urbanization experiences, this study examines new urbanization in diverse aspects such as the population change and the geographic and social characteristics of commuters and migrants for the 6 large cities in Korea. Seoul follows the urbanization stages in order while other 5 large cities are divergent in their transition from the industrial city. Regional large cities reveal broad reverse commuting and selective in-migration of economically active households for better work and housing opportunities available in central cities. Similar to the consumption city thesis with enhanced cultural and recreational amenities in western cities, the widening urban residential function including housing and other services is a new urbanization characteristic of large cities in Korea.

1970년대 중반 이후부터 미국과 유럽의 주요 선진국가들에서 상당히 큰 폭의 경제 구조 재편(restructuring) 과정을 경험하고 있다는데 대부분의 학자들이 동의하고 있다. 이들 선진국들이 세계 경제에서 차지하고 있는 위상 때문에, 이는 곧바로 세계 경제 체제의 변화와 직결되었다 그리고 이러한 큰 폭의 변화 원인과 이행 과정, 그 사회적 함의 등을 밝히려는 여러 이론적 작업들이 진행된 바 있다. (중략)

The author made two major arguments in this paper based on a case study on Songdo Free Economic Zone in South Korea. First, the state power is still being maintained when looking at the development process of the project. Planning and development has been mainly on the hands of government officials. The project reflect the logic of the state rather than the market. And the government tries to manage globalization through Songdo project. Second, even though globalization did not bring about the decline of the state, it changed the state's approach on spatial issues. Songdo is an articulate expression of pursuit of efficiency over equity with the rise of the globalization wave. Songdo also leaves the Korean state a task for consensus-building concerning liberalization.

The main purpose of this paper is to analyze the trend of urbanization and population distribution in North Korea. Although North Korean data lack comparable details, attention has been given to the comparison of urban system between North and South Korea. In North Korea, the pace of urbanization was most rapid just after the Korean War, from 1954 to 1960. However, the pace slowed down markedly in the early 1970s and has remained sluggish since then. North Korea is currently much less urbanized than South Korea. As specific features of urbanization in North Korea, emergence of new cities along inland borders, prominence of intermediate-sized cities, and sudden population growth of major cities due to boundary expansion are stressed. Available demographic data also indicate an overwhelming primacy of Pyongyang Municipality in the urban system, and rapid growth of satellite cities in the west-central region. It appears that, in North Korea, urbanization process has been a product of the government's development policies rather than individual's socioeconomic motivation to migrate urbanward. Finally, migration issues after unification of the Korean Peninsula and related problems are discussed in this study.

This study examined the dynamic relationship between urbanization and energy consumption in China. As an alternative to the conventional method of having the same integration of time series and large samples, ARDL method and Toda-Yamamoto causality analysis were applied. As a result, urbanization income, income, and energy consumption have a long-term stable equilibrium. Urbanization and income have a positive effect on energy consumption in the long run, but short-term changes of urbanization and income have no significant effect on energy consumption changes. The adjusted coefficient was -0.2395, which was statistically significant. In the causality test, income and energy consumption are useful to predict each other, but urbanization is exogenous because there are no causality with other variables. Since the process of urbanization in China has been proceeding slowly and deliberately by the government, it can be seen that the long-term effects of urbanization are clear and exogenous.

This study investigates the spatial policy of small towns in China. Small towns in China are important in terms of settlement system, rural urbanization and new adaptation to changing situation. It was necessary that they shoud take charge of the tool for solving the problem in rural reform periods. Rural urbanization, which had aimed at transferring the surplus labor smoothlv, was connected with the growth of rural industrialization (a township enterprise). However, the location of township enterprises was so dispersed that the transfer of surplus labors was not satisfactory. Hence, the concentration of the rural industry in small towns has been taken up as an inevitable alternative. Namely, it can be said that changes and adaptation of reform process, such as industrial restructuring and migration, should be integrated and concentrated in small towns.

최근에 이르러 농촌 인구의 도시유입으로 도시의 주거공간이 절대적으로 부족해지고 있으며, 이는 대도시의 아파트 가격 상승을 유발하는 등 부수적인 사회/경제적 문제를 일으키고 있다. 정부나 지방자치단체에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 대규모의 신도시 개발계획을 추진하고 있으며, 이러한 신도시 개발은 도시화로 인하여 환경적, 수문학적으로 부정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 조사되고 있다. 도시화는 수문학적으로 산림이나 농경지와 같은 투수지역을 건물, 도로 등의 불투수지역으로 변화시키는 것이며 (Im 등, 2003), 이로 인하여 홍수파의 도달시간이 줄어들고 첨두유량이 증가하는 등의 수문변화를 수반하게 된다. 도로나 건물 등이 대부분을 차지하고 있는 도시지역에서는 지표면이나 식생으로부터 대기중으로 방출되는 증발산량이 농촌이나 산림지역보다 상대적으로 적으며, 강우시 토양중의 침투량과 지표면의 저류량도 도시지역에서는 매우 적게 나타난다. 신도시 개발 전후의 수문순환을 평가하는 방법 중의 하나는 개발예정지에 대한 장$\cdot$단기의 수문/수질 관측을 통하여 개발 전과 개발 후의 유출특성과 수질부하를 정량적으로 비교하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 도시화로 인하여 대규모의 토지이용 변화가 예상되는 신도시 개발예정지구를 시험유역으로 선정하여 장기적인 수문/수질 모니터링을 실시하고자 한다. 또한, 시험유역에서 계측된 자료와 유역수문모형을 활용하여 개발전후의 홍수 및 유출특성을 분석하고 도시화가 하천의 수문 및 수질에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 비교분석 함으로써 효율적인 저감 대책의 수립에 활용할 계획이다. 본 연구에서는 국내$\cdot$외의 시험유역의 운영 실태를 조사하고, 신도시 개발 등으로 인하여 급격한 도시화가 진행되고 있는 지구를 시험유역으로 선정하여 유역의 물순환 체계를 조사하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 신도시 개발지구와 도시정비사업지구를 대상후보지로 선정하여 개발계획 및 유역의 특성 등을 조사하고, 시험유역의 선정기준을 수립하여 연구의 목적과 부합되는 지구를 시험유역으로 선정하였으며 선정된 시험유역에 대하여 수문$\cdot$수질 조사 계획을 수립하고, 계측시설을 설치하여 시험운영을 실시하고, 향후 시험유역의 수문계측 및 관리방안을 수립하고자 한다.

This study aims at explaining locality of living space which is changing drastically by exploring change of land utilization, living space and condition in Yeo-ju, an agricultural area around Seoul. The conclusions are as follows. 1. Agricultural land utilization tends to decrease, while civic land utilization tends to increase. 2. Change of living space due to transportation development is remarkable. Big ferry town (Yeoju-town) grew to a city, while small ferry town fell away. 3. In villages on slow urbanization, houses or lands are deserted. 4. In villages, there has been increasing number of recreational farm for urbanite. 5. In 80% of villages, there has been an increasing number of part-time farmers. 6. Most serious social problem in Yeo-ju is incompetence in agricultural activity after UR. In sum, Yeoju is now an area where the pace of urbanization is very tardy. However, this area, as an changeable area just before speedy urbanization, is expected to be urbanized drastically on condition that transportation develop. When plans suitable for this town are set up, Yeoju is expected to be a comfortable city.

Despite the process of neoliberalization has made a decisive influence on our society as a whole, there seems little interests in neoliberal urbanization and entrepreneurial urban projects promoting it. This study is to see relationships between neolibealization process and recent urbanization and urban policies in terms of entrepreneurial city mediating them. In particular, this paper tries to reconceptualize entrepreneurial city as corresponding to privatization and commodification, financialization, state redistribution, and management and manipulation of crises which Harvey(2005) suggests as four main features of neoliberalization process in general and 'accumulation by dispossession' in particular, and to characterize it in terms of 'creative destruction' and of 'entrepreneurial governance'. As examined in the later part of this paper, recent cases of these entrepreneurial urban projects in S. Korea include volatility of land and housing price in the Capital region and urban regeneration and newtown projects, project for free economic zones construction in Incheon and other 5 regions, project for SOC construction heavily relying on private investment, in particular project financing pursued nationwidely including Daegu, and project of urban cultural marketing to promote capital inflow tacitly as well as to enhance urban imagine explicitly.
