Urbanization is a transformation process from traditional agriculture society to modern city society, and the level of urbanization is an important indication of every country's modernization. In due to of affection of the urban and rural economy dualistic structure, Our country's urbanization level lagged back the economy development badly, which has become the sources of many social problem. In order to solve the current problem, Government has taken a set of measures to raise the level of urbanization recently. However, Under the government-oriented urbanization model, the policy of urbanization didn't pay attention to the function of market mechanism, the government at all ranks seek to improve the level of urbanization, which have give a birth to plenty of ostensible urbanization with the urbanization level improved fleetly.The urbanization policy has changed into the tool of city swell, increasing the number of city, improving the administrational rank, and invading the land rights of peasants. If we don't take measure to tackle this problem, it will intensify the confliction between the city and country and break off the path to urbanization which has just started. Accordingly, through analyzing the special ostensible urbanization phenomenon mechanism and probing the institutional innovation, try to shape a better institutional environment and mechanism device which in favor of improving the level of urbanization verily, we can raise the quality of urbanization problem research and provide the relatively real theory for administrational practice.This thesis adopts both academic and positivistic analysis methods.
