説明

Urbanization and urban problems in the USA today exert profound influence on those in Japan. Magnitude of urbanization in the USA is very large, almost equal to the number of urban population of China today. However, America's urban land use as a whole is by far the greatest in the world as a nation having reached the maximum stage that the humankind has ever attained. Emergence of the first fullfledged megalopolis is good evidence. Urban problems are deeply and intricately entangled with ethnic prolems, making a sharp contrast to those of Japan. Spatial conditions of urbanization are another important fact that characterizes the contemporary American urbanization. Its spacious use of land, largely supported by the affluence of resources and land as well as the idea of land use that has been made possible by the use of a great many automobiles as an example of the present-day technologies, is one of the very conspicuous American phenomena. In townscape, the traditional traits have been reconsidered so as to establish “American towns” as contrasted to the clusters of highrise buildings known as “American cities.” This paper is to describe present situations of American urbanization and urban problems after a 200-year history of the American nation.
