Rural to Urban

"Rural to Urban" explores the global phenomenon of rural to urban migration, examining its causes, consequences, and potential policy interventions. This demographic shift impacts individuals, societies, and the environment, making its understanding crucial for addressing economic inequality and promoting sustainable development. The book reveals that while urbanization is often seen as a path to economic opportunity, its effects vary significantly depending on location, culture, and implemented policies.

The book begins with a historical overview, tracing urbanization from early settlements to the industrial revolution. It then dives into the 'Push' and 'Pull' factors influencing migration, such as rural poverty versus urban opportunities. Case studies from diverse regions illustrate the varying impacts of migration, from housing and infrastructure challenges to social integration.

The book's interdisciplinary approach combines insights from economics, sociology, geography, and history to offer a holistic understanding of the interplay between rural and urban areas in this global shift.
