Abstract

The Industrial Revolution marked the beginning of the most spectacular development stage in human history, that is, the process of modernization. Since then, across the globe, the economic systems, social structures, political systems, and cultural patterns that constitute human society have undergone tremendous change and progress. Urbanization and industrialization are the two most important aspects of such modernization. These aspects invariably coincide with each another in mutual support, promoting both the growth of global wealth, and unprecedented alterations throughout society.

    It should be noted that, the then large proportion of urban population in Taiwan had much to do with the migration of a large number of military and civilian population from the Chinese mainland to Taiwan and their concentration in urban areas. In 1947 the urban population in Taiwan was 2.57 million.
