Urbanization of Developing Countries

(by Huntington, 1996)
To be more competitive in international markets and to pay foreign debts developing countries encouraged export of national resources and agricultural products. In order to produce agricultural products quickly and efficiently, govt decrease the number of small producers and turn over production to large enterprise This turns land into a commodity, that can be bought and sold./Free market economics pursues economic efficiency to deliver goods at the lowest possible price. Farm programs are eliminated farmers need to shoulder he burden of farming, sometimes with no alternative but to sell their land-and move to the cities where the farmer hope for a better life
