urbanization does not mean country people come into a city but that the city extends out to the countryside

It is alleged that under the modernizing forces of the 1870s and 1880s , huge cities suddenly sprung up around the world that were more crowded than the cities before them.

It is true that they were much bigger than traditional cities - but they were also less not more crowded than earlier cities.

This myth allows urbanization is be set off as the straw dog opposite of the co-current trend of globalization.
