The purpose of this study is to reconstruct the level of urbanization and reexamine the nature of over/underurbanization problems in China. The study begins with a critical question about whether or not the urbanization level of 36.01 percent in 2000, as published in the 2000 Chinese Census Report, is a reliable figure when it is compared with the levels of urbanization, as published in the four previous Census Reports. The answer is in the negative. Thus, the study uses the UN methods of rural/urban population projection to reconstruct two time-series data sets of the Chinese levels of urbanization. The study then attempts to elucidate the nature of over/underurbanization problems using the second data set of 1982-2000 urbanization levels.
This study develops two types of regression models that might help to explain the relationship between urbanization and economic development. Using the country data from the World Bank (2003), it estimates the two regression models, and finds the logarithmic model has more predictive power than the simple linear model does. According to results from the logarithmic equation model, China was apparently overurbanized before the adoption of economic reform policy in 1978, while the problem of underurbanization has become rather a statistically significant phenomenon in more recent years, particularly beginning in the mid-1990s. In this regard, it is very important to note that the strong intervention by the Chinese socialist government in urban affairs (e.g., Hokou registration system) has exerted prohibitive constraints on the "statistical level" of urbanization in contemporary China.
