At present China is in the acceleration stage of the town development, and Chongqing has also entered the town acceleration phase. To the end of the year 2002, the total population of Chongqing was 31070 thousand, among them the town population 11310 thousand, and the urbanization rate was over 30% in 2002. If the urbanization rate is more than 30% and below 70%, the city quantity increases rapidly and concentrated district and the continuous area in big cities appears. During this period, the secondary industry gives first place to the town development .And the secondary industry is a major motive force that pushes forward the urbanization in this particular period. China is a developing country with large population. The realization of the quick urbanization must rely on the promotion of industry. After the INDUSTRY REVOLUTION, the urbanization developed quickly in western capitalist nations, and then expanded to the other districts in the world. The fact proves that the urbanization is the direct outgrowth of industrialization. At the same time, owing to the scale effect and the cluster economic effect of the city, the city promotes the development of the industrialization and the socialization of production and service, and promotes the adjustment and the promotion of economic structure.The thesis focus on the development of the town agglomeration and the layout of the characteristic industry zone in the western district of Chongqing. In fact the development course of the town agglomeration is the course of industrialization promoting urbanization. The urbanization is a complicated course, and if China wants to realize the assignment of urbanization, the only promotion by the tertiary industry is inadequate, we still must quicken the development of industry, The population concentrating to the town, and industry to the zone are the trend of economicdevelopment, and the industry zone which must be characteristic, can be in the invincible position in the intense competition of market.The purpose of the establishment of the characteristic industry zone is to seek for cluster economic effect, to promote the industrialization; then the industrialization promotes the urbanization and the development of city and city economy. The city is the space form of cluster economy in essence, which accompanies the city in the long history of his development. So cluster economy is the origin of the space form of the city. By studying the town agglomeration, we will know the definite space structure, as well as the economic space structure. Certainly a city is in one big system, relating with the cities around it; thus this thesis also will study the relationship with the metropolitan advanced economic sphere of Chongqing, with the cities around it in Sichuan province. This thesis is divided into six parts. The research background and theory foundation of the thesis have been expounded to the first part. The second part explains some notions, for example the industry clusters, regional economic network, characteristic industry and characteristic industry zone. The third part analyzes the relation between the development of the town agglomeration and the characteristic industry zone. The planning and construction of the characteristic industry zone and the development of town agglomeration are one kind of relation contacting mutually and promoting mutually. The present situation and the industrial foundation condition are summarized in the fourth part, which analyzes his unique location superiority, the economic development foundation and infrastructure, the position in the strategy of Chongqing, as well as the unfavorable condition. The general economic strength of each city has been compared in the 5th part, which has analyzed the influence scope of regional center city and the relation with the cities around it in Sichuan province; thus on this foundation we form three concentrated areas and three economic belts, and then put forward the ranking of characteristic industry zone, the development objective and...
