| Summary: | The analysis of cities focuses mainly on the concentration of population and economic activities; however, during the last decades an increasingly complex problem has been observed and it is not enough to analyze only the concentration, although this process continues, but also the new form of urbanization that is taking shape, whose effects present completely different characteristics from those existing during the industrialization stage.industrialization.Urban agglomerations have commonly been seen as a development pole in which the labor force, infrastructure and control of the economic and political power of a region or country are concentrated. However, this tendency is being modified by the insertion of elements that present diverse functions such as political, business, art and cultural centers, among others (Hall, 1998).These roles are becoming increasingly important, implying that the city is entering a new stage in which it will continue to maintain its hegemony as the pivot of the world economy. This change in roles is largely linked to the new forms of trade, economic and production relations that began in the early 1970s and are still in the process of adaptation for some regions and countries. All of this has been termed "globalization". |
