Full textAbstract:
China has achieved unprecedented economic growth and consequent successes in poverty alleviation over the past three decades of economic liberalization and market-oriented reforms. Yet, in order to continue its progress in poverty reduction, while addressing pressing environmental and sociopolitical concerns, it is crucial for China’s leaders to achieve and sustain green, equitable, and robust economic performance in all parts of China. This thesis argues that a reconceptualized and strengthened rural industrialization program would enable China to maintain economic growth and assist with the transition to a domestically driven consumer economy. Moreover, rural industrialization, coupled with targeted administrative and institutional policy modifications, will enable the Chinese government to provide support to millions of its rural poor, thus avoiding social instability and potentially severe internal conflicts. Such a program would also lessen pollution and its associated costs on China’s densely populated cities, by shifting heavy urban industries to relatively less contaminated areas while adopting cleaner, environmentally sustainable technologies, introduced in a participatory manner in consultation with local communities. This approach would concurrently address regional, rural-to-urban, and intra-communal disparities, provide opportunity for “green growth” initiatives, and better equip rural populations to address growing vulnerabilities as a result of climate change.

HistoryPh.D.
Between the 1930s and mid-1980s, North Carolina became one of the most industrialized states in the country, with more factory workers, as a percentage of the total workforce, than any other state. And yet, North Carolina generally retained its rural complexion, with small factories dispersed throughout the countryside, instead of concentrated in large industrial cities. This dissertation asks two essential questions: first, how did this rural-industrial geography come to be, and second, what does the creation of this geography reveal about the state of the American political economy in the post-World War II era? I argue that rural industrialization was a central goal of North Carolina’s postwar political leaders and economic development officials. These industry hunters, as I call them, wanted to raise their state’s per capita income by recruiting manufacturers to develop or relocate operations in North Carolina. At the same time, they worried about developing large industrial cities or mill villages, associating them with class conflict, congestion, and a host of other ill-effects. In the hopes of attracting industry to its countryside, the state invested heavily in its secondary roads and highways, increasing the accessibility of rural communities. In their pursuit of rural industrialization, however, North Carolina also constructed a political economy that anticipated the collapse of the New Deal state. While historians typically see New Deal liberalism as the prevailing form of statecraft in the postwar United States, North Carolina achieved economic growth through a model that state officials termed “accessible isolation.” What accessible isolation meant was that North Carolina would provide industries with enough of a state apparatus to make operating a factory in a rural area possible, while maintaining policies of low taxes, limited regulations, and anti-unionism, to make those sites desirable. Essentially, industry hunters offered industrial prospects access to a supply of cheap rural labor, but isolation from the high wages, labor unions, government regulations, and progressive tax code that defined New Deal liberalism. Accessible isolation was attractive to businesses in postwar America because it offered a “business-friendly” alternative to the New Deal, and factories began sprouting throughout rural North Carolina. But the success of accessible isolation was built on a shaky foundation. Indeed, most of the employers persuaded by its promises were those in low-wage, labor-intensive industries, making North Carolina’s rural communities especially vulnerable to transformations in the global economy by the late twentieth century.

Full textAbstract:
Since the latter half of the nineteenth century, industrialization and modernization have strongly shaped the development of the French department Ariège. Over the last roughly 150 years, Ariège has seen its population decline from a quarter million to 150,00. Its traditional agrarian economy has been remade for competition on global markets, and the department has relied on tourism to bring in revenue where other traditional industries have failed to do so. In this thesis I identify the European Union and French policies that continue to guide Ariège's development through subsidies and regulation. I explain the origins and effects of modernization on rural areas such as Ariège, and the ways in which market pressures and new technologies have reshaped the landscape, and advance an argument for why Ariège's story is relevant across rural Europe and communities globally that exist at the margins.

Desde que foi proclamada em 1949, a República Popular da China passa por um intenso processo de transformação política e econômica. Essa pesquisa analisa alguns aspectos desse processo, tomando como referencial a questão camponesa. Para isso, discorre sobre o papel do campesinato na revolução chinesa, na edificação da República Popular e sobre sua contribuição para a industrialização. Enfatiza que os benefícios econômicos advindos com a intensificação das reformas iniciadas em 1978 são distribuídos de forma assimétrica. De um lado, o Estado é cada vez mais forte, principalmente no plano externo. Por outro, grande parte da população, especialmente na zona rural onde ainda vive a maioria da população, enfrenta uma situação social bastante adversa. A crescente desigualdade econômica é apenas uma das muitas fraturas sociais gestadas pelo processo de modernização. Por ameaçar permanentemente a estabilidade política essas fraturas são vistas pelo governo como grandes obstáculos morais, políticos e econômicos. E colocam mais uma vez os camponeses no centro dos debates sobre o futuro da modernização chinesa.Since the promulgation in 1949, the Popular Republic of China (PRC) experiments an intense political and economic transformation process. This resource analyses some aspects of this process, to take as a reference a peasant question. In order to, discourses about the role of peasant on Chinese revolution, on PRC building and its contribution for individual individualization. It stand out that economic profits get holds in improvements reforms started in 1978 have asymmetrical distribution. On one hand, the State is stronger before than, principally abroad. On other hand, a larger part of people, especially on rural area where live most that, is face to a social adverse situation. The increasing economic inequality is only one among many social ruptures developed by modernization process. These ruptures that permanently threaten political stability are perceptible by government just moral, political, and economic barriers. Put once more peasants at the center of debates about the future of Chinese modernization.

Full textAbstract:
Cette recherche interroge l’existence des nouvelles formes de ruralité émergentes dans le bassin métropolitain du delta du Yangzi. En opposition à l’écart croissant entre patrimoine infrastructurel et société on réaffirme la priorité du territoire comme principe théorique et paradigme naturel. L’analyse des processus historiques d’aménagement du territoire agricole à partir des réformes foncières et des pratiques autochtones de « Guangxi » (réseaux sociaux), a révélé une restructuration des ressources stratégiques du territoire du delta avant la réorganisation des espaces ruraux bâtis : la nature du sol et le réseau de l’eau. En même temps dispositif de contrôle politique et de développement social, la modification de l’infrastructure territoriale jusqu’ à la fin du maoïsme, peut être interprétée comme un investissement sur le long terme du capital humain et environnemental. Notre hypothèse est que la diffusion des petites et moyennes entreprises dans les zones rurales représente une forme de capitalisation des matrices sociales et organisationnelles du tissu agricole plus ancien. Ces transformations ont amené à la formation de nombreux espaces hybrides et clusters des entreprises dispersées dans la campagne qui s’appuient de façon complémentaire aux réseaux environnementaux préexistants. En conséquence, ce mode de production a à son tour, remodelé la relation entre l'économie, les communautés et l'environnement naturel locaux donnant lieu à des formes du développement sans fractures, plus ductiles et résilientes où la relation entre l'espace construit et l'espace agricole n'est plus de nature opposée. Ce qui émerge est un réseau de “milieux” dont chaque élément rend compte de la conception d’un paysage, de matériaux propres, de méthodes et procédures de construction. L’organisation morphologique qui en résulte montre un modèle d'urbanisation capillaire dans ces zones conventionnellement définies « non-urbaines ». Interroger ces formes émergentes de ruralité veut dire réviser la façon de conceptualiser la notion du « territoire métropolitain », et notamment de ce que on définis l’ « urbain ». On fait valoir, finalement, pour un besoin urgent de reconsidérer la séquence programmatique qui sous-tendent la morphologie spatiale de régions mégalopolitaines, par la prise en compte des rapports de continuité entre « milieux » et « communauté » et par le biais d'un examen des interactions entre ces réalités souvent, disjointsThe territorial scale and the form of the territory are fundamental basis to understand metropolitan processes and the changes occurred in its spatial, economic and social structure. The centrality of landforms and of their dynamics inspires more situated approaches, in which the agency of natural elements is integrated. This research investigates the existence of new forms of emerging rurality in the metropolitan basin of the Yangtze Delta. In opposition to the growing gap between infrastructural heritage and society, the priority of the territory is reaffirmed as a theoretical tool and environmental paradigm. The research hypothesis is that the spread of small and medium-sized enterprises in rural areas represents a form of capitalization of the spatial reorganization occurred in the Commune's period. The preliminary factor which originated the process of rural industrialization is based on the restructuring of two strategic territorial resources: the soil structure and the water network. These transformations have led to the formation of numerous hybrid spaces and clusters of small and micro enterprises dispersed over the countryside. As a result, this mode of production has, in turn, reshaped the relationship between the local economy, communities and natural environment giving rise to forms of urban development without fractures, where the relationship between the built space and the agricultural area is no longer of an opposite nature. What emerges is a network of "milieu” where the resulting socio-spatial organization shows a pattern of capillary urbanization in these conventionally defined "non-urban" areas. The notion of urban is changing and ecological rationality can offer fundamental opportunities to analyse, intersect and integrate the various territorial layers

Full textAbstract:
Die Zeit der Hochindustrialisierung veränderte das Gesicht der Städte in Europa und Nordamerika grundlegend. Ein hohes natürliches Bevölkerungswachstum, ausgeprägte Land-Stadt-Wanderungen gepaart mit einer intensiven baulichen Verdichtung nach innen und außen prägten das Geschehen. Das steigende Arbeitsplatzangebot in der Industrie und dem tertiären Sektor griff tief in die traditionellen Arbeits- und Lebenswelten des Einzelnen ein. Von den Veränderungen war Berlin als Hauptstadt des Deutschen Reiches und eines der wichtigsten Wirtschaftszentren im besonderen betroffen. Ein Stadtteil Berlins, der an der ehemaligen nördlichen Stadtgrenze gelegene Wedding, steht im Mittelpunkt der vorliegenden Dissertation. Dieser Stadtteil zeichnete sich durch eine besonders dynamische Entwicklung aus. Die noch vorhandenen großen Freiflächen wurden innerhalb weniger Jahre in Bauland verwandelt. Großbetriebe der Elektro- und Chemischen Industrie ließen sich im Wedding nieder und bestimmten in zunehmendem Maße den lokalen Arbeitsmarkt. Auf der Grundlage einer Auswertung der Kirchenbücher der lokalen Gemeinden mit insgesamt 95.623 erfaßte Personen konnte für das Untersuchungsgebiet im Zeitraum 1885-1914 der Nachweis erbracht werden, dass selbst innerhalb eines eng umrissenen Stadtgebietes erhebliche sozio-ökonomische und städtebauliche Gegensätze bestanden. Diese Gegensätze werden durch die Zahlen der amtlichen Statistik nur allzu leicht verdeckt, wirken aber in ihrer Konsequenz bis in die Gegenwart nach. Zahlreiche der aktuell zu beobachtenden Problemkomplexe - u.a. eine Arbeitslosenquote von weit über 20 Prozent, Gewerbebrachen und eine überdurchschnittlich starke Konzentration ausländischer Bevölkerungsgruppen - haben demnach ihren Ursprung bereits im Kaiserreich.The era at the peak of industrialization fundamentally altered the appearance of cities in Europe and North America. A high level of natural population growth and extensive migration movements from rural to urban areas coupled with an intensive architectural expansion to the inside and outside characterized the events. The increasing number of employment opportunities in the industrial and tertiary sectors profoundly interfered with the people’s traditional working and living environments. These changes particularly affected Berlin as the capital city of the German Empire and as one of the most important commercial centers. The Wedding, a city district of Berlin located along the former northern city limit, is at the core of this dissertation. This district stood out through its especially dynamic development. The large undeveloped areas that still existed at the time were transformed into built-up areas within a few years’ time. Large-scale enterprises in the electronic and chemical industries settled down in the Wedding district and took an increasing influence on the local job market. On the basis of an evaluation of church records (from the local Wedding parishes) that altogether contain information on 95,623 people, this study of the time period from 1885 to 1914 demonstrates the existence of significant socio-economic and urban developmental contrasts recognizable even within a narrowly defined city area (such as the Wedding district). These contrasts are all too easily concealed by the numbers of official statistical data, yet their consequences continue to produce an after-effect, even in the presence. An unemployment rate of well above 20 percent, widespread unoccupied commercial infrastructure, and a significantly above-average concentration of foreign population groups is among numerous currently recognizable problem clusters that already originated in the time of the German Empire.

L’objet de cette thèse est l’étude de l’évolution des villes et le développement économique en Algérie, en faisant une première étude sur les villes des pays du Maghreb qui présentent une similitude dans leur évolution et connaissent un processus accéléré de leur urbanisation dû au phénomène de l’exode rural. Ce travail est composé de trois chapitres.Le premier chapitre propose d’étudier le développement des hiérarchies urbaines et de déterminer la nature de la croissance urbaine pour les trois pays de cette région du monde qui a subi des changements démographiques, politiques, économiques et sociaux importants depuis la seconde moitié du 20ème siècle. On s’appuie dans ce travail sur une base de données qui regroupe la population des villes urbaines des pays du Maghreb de plus de 5000 habitants pour tous les recensements effectués depuis les années 60. Nous analyserons ensuite les résultats trouvés à l’aide d’outils et modèles économétriques utilisés souvent par les chercheurs dans le domaine de l’urbanisation.L’Algérie, qui constitue notre cas d’étude dans le deuxième chapitre, présente à son indépendance en 1962, une économie dépendante, désarticulée et orientée autour de l’intérêt de la minorité coloniale et du capitalise métropolitain, sa population pauvre et quasiment analphabète vit sur la bande Nord du pays. Les projets industriels postindépendance lancés par les gouvernements successifs n’ont pas eu de résultats probants. En effet, plus d’un demi-siècle plus tard, l’Algérie est toujours fortement dépendante de la rente des hydrocarbures et son économie n’a pas été diversifiée. La ville d’Alger, objet de notre troisième chapitre, est née au 10ème siècle et devient la capitale de la Régence entre le 16ème et 19ème siècle. Durant la période coloniale 1830-1962, la ville se développe, s’occidentalise, elle devient la capitale coloniale hors de l’hexagone et à l’indépendance, dès le départ des européens, un rush sur les biens vacants est observé, l’exode entamé durant la guerre s’accélère du fait que le nouvel État n’a pas eu une politique urbaine, il reconduit la législation coloniale puis opte en 1974 pour une législation de type socialiste et libérale à partir de 1990. Les tentatives de maitriser l’urbanisation par des institutions, des études, et des découpages n’ont pas donné les résultats probants, la ville a évolué spontanémentThe purpose of this thesis is the study of the evolution of cities and the economic development in Algeria, by making a first study on the cities of the Maghreb countries, which present a similarity in their evolution and know an accelerated process of their urbanization due to the phenomenon of rural exodus. This work consists of three chapters.The first chapter proposes to study the development of urban hierarchies and determine the nature of urban growth for the three countries of this region of the world, which has undergone significant demographic, political, economic and social changes since the second half of the 20th century. This work is based on a database of urban populations in the Maghreb countries of more than 5000 inhabitants for all the censuses carried out since the 1960s. We will then analyze the results found with the help of econometric tools and models often used by researchers in the field of urbanization.Algeria, which is our case study in the second chapter, presents at independence in 1962, a dependent economy, disarticulated and oriented around the interest of the colonial minority and capitalization metropolitan, its poor and almost illiterate population lives on the northern strip of the country. Post independence industrial projects launched by successive governments have had no convincing results. Indeed, more than half a century later, Algeria is still highly dependent on hydrocarbon rent and its economy has not been diversified.The city of Algiers, object of our third chapter, was born in the 10th century and becomes the capital of the Regency between the 16th and 19th century. During the colonial period 1830-1962, the city developed, westernized, it becomes the colonial capital out of the hype and at independence, from the departure of the Europeans, a rush on the vacant property is observed; the exodus started during the war accelerates. The new state does not have an urban policy; it renews the colonial legislation and then opts in 1974 for a socialist and liberal type of legislation from 1990. The attempts to control the urbanization by institutions, studies, and divisions did not give the convincing results, the city evolved spontaneously

ABSTRACT The post-war rural development tendency has turned from exogenous to endogenous or mixed “exogenous-endogenous.”, rural areas have become consumers than producers , and people begin to take their cultures seriously. In addition, since local cultural industries are different from urban ones and have a close space relationship with rural areas, we may conclude that rural development is the industrialization of local cultures. The use of local resources, participation of local residents and their identification with the place are the important elements in the industrialization of local culture during the process of rural development.Hence,I take he cultural park of Suan-Tou sugar factory in Jia-Yi County as a case study. There are three major discoveries: 1. Suan-Tou sugar factory presents its unique culture by combining it with local features, holding guided tours, and giving literary speeches on factory introduction. One major concern is that the factory staffs hold differentiated views about the use and preservation of the resources. 2. The transformation of the factory originates from the spontaneous actions of its staffs. Their understanding of the local culture is beneficial to the factory’s future development. In addition, the local government and the community development association have also been helpful. Nevertheless, the executives of the factory hold a rather passive attitude. This is contradictory to that of the guided-tour docents, the government, and the association. 3. The conservative investment policy of Taiwan Sugar, the confusing distribution of responsibilities, and the boring marketing of the factory have become obstacles for rural development. Luckily, the Jia-Yi county government steps in, helps out, and strengthens the tie between the factory and its head company. Various activities are often held here. Lastly, by comparing this case with theories, participation of the local people turns out to be the most important, whereas the local government is the core of such participation and often becomes the catalyzer of rural development.
