3. Metropolitan Trends in US Urbanization and Metropolitanization城市化与大都市区化（大城市化）Centralization vs. Decentralization 中心化与扩散化Concentration & Dispersion集中化与分散化MetropolitanizationGrowth or emergence of a large population center consisting of a large city and its adjacent zone of influence, or of several neighboring cities or towns and adjoining areas, with one or more large cities serving as its hub or hubs.

4. Centralization vs. DecentralizationTwo Ecological Processes:中心化与扩散化Concentration: Americans were concentrating in urban areas while they were spreading outward. (P96) Decentralization: Within urban regions, people and institutions were decentralizing. They were moving to the outskirts of cities. (P97)Concentration & Dispersion集中化与分散化Concentration 集中 the tendency for an increased number of like people or institutions to locate within a given area. (The text, 41- L ) Dispersion 分散 the opposite of concentration. (41- L)

7. 2007年底，我国机动车保有量已达1.598亿辆 来自公安部的有关统计显示，截至2007年底，我国机动车保有量已达1.598亿辆。比 2006年增长10.02%，其中汽车保有量5696多万辆，轿车保有量2149万辆，私人轿车保有量1521万多辆。日前预测，2008年我国汽车产销仍将保持两位数增长，并可望首次突破1000万辆大关。 　　统计表明，2007年我国载客汽车增长较快，比2006年增21.86%，载货汽车增长相对缓慢，仅比2006年增7.41%。私人机动车则继续保持增长，比2006年增 10.92%，目前私人机动车的保有量已占机动车总量的76.09%。统计还显示，2007年我国机动车驾驶人也保持高增长，截至2007年底，机动车驾驶人达1.64亿人，比2006年增9.17%。

8. 　自2000年我国汽车产销量突破200万辆大关以来，国产汽车产销量持续以每年超过100万辆的增量稳步增长。2006年，中国新车消费首次超过日本仅次于美国而位列世界第二，产量则继续超过德国位列全球第三。　　 目前我国每千人拥有不到44辆汽车，而世界平均水平为120辆，有关专家指出，由于我国国民经济持续发展，国内对汽车产品的需求，未来几年仍家保持稳步的增长。 （来源：新华网）2008年我国机动车保有量达16803万余辆http://www.hx2car.com 2008-11-21 来源：hx2car.com截止到今年9月底，全国机动车保有量达16803万余辆，与2007年底相比增长5.17%。其中，汽车6289万余辆，摩托车8947万余辆

9. 机动车保有量继续增长，汽车和摩托车是机动车的构成主体，占全国机动车保有量的90.68%。汽车继续快速增长。全国汽车保有量为6289万余辆，占机动 车总量的37.43%，与2007年底相比增加10.4%。载客汽车保有量为3680万余辆，占汽车总量的58.52%，与2007年底相比增长 15.64%。私人机动车保持增长。全国私人机动车保有量为127683万余辆，占机动车总量的75.99%，与2007年底相比增长5.03%。其中私人汽车4018 万余辆，占汽车保有量的63.89%，与2007年底相比增加484万余辆，增长13.71%。私人摩托车8721万余辆，占摩托车保有量的 97.48%，余2007年底相比增长3.35%。

10. 机动车驾驶人增幅上升，截止到2008年9月，全国机动车驾驶人为1.76亿人，与2007年底相比增长7.17%。其中汽车驾驶人1.18亿人，与2007年底相比增长9.96%。2010年我国机动车保有量达1．99亿辆 据公安部交管局统计，2010年9月底，我国机动车保有量达1．99亿辆，其中汽车8500多万辆。每年新增机动车2000多万辆；机动车驾驶人达2．05亿人，其中汽车驾驶人1．44亿人，每年新增驾驶人2200多万人。 公安部交管局所统计的8500万辆汽车，还包括大约1500万辆低速货车，也就是通常所说的农用车。减去农用车，我国汽车保有量实际上只有7000万辆，低于日本的7500万辆汽车保有量，相当于美国2.85亿辆汽车保有量的四分之一。

11. 从全世界范围来看，千人汽车保有量为120辆。而中国目前千人汽车保有量只有54辆，不到世界平均水平的一半。中国去年已经成为世界最大的汽车生产国和第一大新车市场，汽车保有量近年来也迅速扩大。Factors that determine migrationPolitical Factors Two factors in the political arena greatly influenced the shape of metropolitan areas: Large-scale business ownership; The laissez-faire attitude toward expansion.

15. What is social problem: definition A formal definition might read: A social problem is a condition affecting a significant number of people in ways considered undesirable, about which it is felt something can be done through collective social action. This definition has four distinct ideas: (1) a condition affecting a significant number of people; (2) in ways considered undesirable; (3) about which it is felt something can be done; and (4) through collective social action.

19. Size of the metropolitan area and social pathology: Urbanism Alienation Anonymity Impersonality Bureaucracy Anomie Diseconomies of scale Homogeneity Heterogeneity (Textbook P101-103)

20. Extreme density and crowding of settlement Density is the number of persons, institutions per standard unit of (outer) space (square mile, or acre) Crowding refers to the number of people per room in a dwelling.Density: Rat Studies pen I pen II pen III pen IV Density and CrowdingFour types of density: (P274) persons per land unit persons per housing unit housing units per structure persons per roomCrowding: (P276) persons per room

21. Some studies that show both density and crowding to be related to social pathologies a. Many adverse social conditions as overall death rate, infant death rate are all correlated with overcrowding; b. When certain social structural variables are controlled for, relationship between density and social pathology become obscured; c. However, relationships between overcrowding and pathologies are consistently found.What do homogeneity/heterogeneity patterns mean? Within metropolitan regions, the population is very diversified; however, local areas, such as neighborhoods, become more homogeneous. (P104L)

22. It means that there are more ethnic, racial age, and class differences and residential segregations.Some problems resulted from the Homogeneity/Heterogeneity Patterns a. Difficulties to have programs and services that satisfy different needs and desires. b. Homogeneity of neighborhoods can lead to de facto segregation of school systems. c. The tight knit interaction patterns required for the district to operate can make urban renewal programs exceedingly difficult. d. Competition between central city and autonomous suburbs. (Textbook P104R)_

23. Aging of the population and buildings Definition: P104 Population aging Metropolitan aging a. general infrastructure aging in the older cities b. the most severe aging problems in older cities in the Northeast and upper Midwest.Economic base conditions fiscal(financial) crisis in central cities as the result of decentralization.imbalance or disjunction between ability to pay for urban service, use of those service, and taxation from the central city and the suburban cities.

24. Governmental inadequacyIneffectiveness and inefficiency of local government 1. Erosion of the economic base; 2. Increased demand for service; 3. Political fragmentation, and 4. Increased centralization of power, particularly at the federal level. (Text P106)Chapter 5 The American Metropolis

26. III. Components of Metropolitan Areas 1. Central city: the primary city in a Metropolitan Statistical Area, which frequently derives its name from that city. 2. Suburbs: the areas with urban character located outside the central city but within the urbanized area. (P107) 3. Exurbs: the zones has a few small groupings of well-to-do urban style homes. (P110) 4.The Urban fringe: an area between the suburbs and exurbs, in which urban and rural land-uses are mixed (intermingled). （P111） 5. Satellites: scattered and small cities of between 10,000 and 100,000 population within and between metropolitan regions. （P111）

27. Types of Residential Segregation• Occupational segregation• Racial segregation• Ethnic segregation• Residential segregation by ageOccupational segregation• The greatest increase in segregation by occupation was between professional and managerial workers and clerical workers.• Conversely, clerical workers tended to become somewhat closely, residentially, to the lower-occupational categories.

28. • Service workers, however, were less segregated from higher groups than other relatively low-status occupations. Racial segregationRacial segregation from 1950 to 1970 · Black and white members of the metropolitan population were highly segregated and the pattern was relatively stable. (P120-1) · Whites were less segregated from other whites of different occupation than they were from blacks. (P120-1) · The greatest declines in racial segregation were found in small SMSA; where the minority population of population was small; (P120-2)

29.  · Where the minority populations were large, no declines occurred. (P120-2)The major causes of the patterns of Racial segregationSocial-psychological-attitudinal forces. Social structural forces. a. socio-economic patterns and the relative position. b. the size of the black population vis-à-vis the white. c. population transformation or transposition in central cities.Ethnic segregation The first generation of immigrants tended to settle in separate areas;the younger generation rend to resettle in other areas of the city.

30.  The key variable of ethnic segregation is social status, some other factors include language, age structure, and generation.Residential segregation by age Elderly tend to live near the centers of cities and their proportion of the population declines as one moves toward the edges of the metropolitan area. The older people are much less segregated from the rest of the population than are blacks. The older population is not as segregated and ill-housed as the stereotypes have suggested.Measures of Segregation Dimensions and Index Definition

31. Measures of Evenness（不）均等测量 Evenness measures of segregation compare the spatial distributions of different groups.Measures of Exposure 暴露（接触）测量 Exposure measures the degree of potential contact, or possibility of interaction, between minority and majority group members.Measures of Concentration 集中性测量 Concentration refers to the relative amount of physical space occupied by a minority group in the metropolitan area.Measures of Centralization 中心化测量

32. Centralization is the degree to which a group is spatially located near the center of an urban area.Measures of Clustering 聚集测量 Clustering measures "the extent to which areal units inhabited by minority members adjoin one another, or cluster, in space“.VI. Summar 1、大都市化与城市带。19世纪中后期，美国城市出现了大都市化趋势，主要表现为郊区城市的扩展。20世纪中期以来，大都市化又造成城市带的出现。促成成大都市化的主要因素包括交通、制造业中科学技术的发展、外来移民的增加和社会体制中自由放任的传统等。

33. N 2、在大城市化也带来各种社会问题，如种族主义、犯罪问题、规模不经济、环境问题、财政问题。按照一些学者的观点，这些问题与城市规模、居住密集、文化多样性以及地方政府权力的分散及弱化有直接联系。3、大都市区包括郊区、远郊住宅区、城市边缘地区和卫星城市组成。这些不同的地区具有不同的社会结构和土地利用功能。4、大城市化的直接导因是郊区化。在大都市地区，存在着各种复杂的居住隔离现象，反映了不同人口集团在社会地位、族裔文化、职业和教育背景上的明显差别。
