Analytical models of urbanization

Barbara Verlič

Abstract

The author presents the differences in
social standard among the inhabitants of
former Yugoslav republics and tries to
establish the characteristics of its structural
disharmony from the aspect of two
European models of the urbanization
process. These are the model of excessive
urbanization and the model of
suburbanization. Both express a
discontinuity between the growth rates of
urbanization and industrialization. Both
the models existed (in some aspects, not
completely) in the area of Yugoslavia.
Developed regions are marked by the
spreading of well-equipped areas and
especially by the distribution of developed
commodities and services in a
polycentrically organized network of small
towns and local rural centres. Elements of
the second model, suburbanization,
predominate in the south and east.
