Though the city had become the maximal city of China before 1949, its urbanization did not stop. With the incessant advance of Reform and Open to the World, Shanghai's urbanization began its new acceleratory time and the problem about the management of nonnative population aroused the high attention of government and academia.The incessant advance of urbanization is the key factor of the continual augment of Shanghai's nonnative population. However, the nonnative population of Shanghai in different time was quite diverse. The foreigner as colonist were special crowd of modern Shanghai' nonnative population, the displaced person form other regions were the most important part of modern Shanghai' nonnative population.
