Although urban regeneration is a worldwide issue, it has been especially present in the urban areas throughout the UK in the last 30 years, with the government introducing many different schemes to try and combat the causes and consequences of urban decline. This essay will discuss them and their varying degrees of success. Urban Development Corporations were set up in the 1980s and 1990s, and took the stance of improving the physical, economic and social state of inner city areas through building new infrastructure on derelict and vacant land. These UDCs were given planning approval powers that encouraged them to purchase land, build the new infrastructure and improve the marketing to attract outside investment to the area. The motive behind this was that private investment would be four to five times greater than the initial public spending.
The banks are under-capitalized in their inadequate financial system and this increases China’s banking sector risk (IHS, 2014). Opportunities include the growth of cities within the country. Approximately “100 million [individuals are] expected to move into cities by 2020” (National Post, 2014). China’s continuous growth in the private sector and increase liberalization will result in further innovation and local brand name companies. (China Business Forecast, 2014).
However, the accelerated progression of the country’s economy and affluence wrought consequential effects. Businesses monopolised entire industries through vertical and horizontal integration, the increase in industry attracted workers to already densely populated cities, and working conditions for the lower-to-middle class were often poor. With the unprecedented increases in population, cities were ill-equipped to support the sanitary and safety needs of the occupants. Post-Civil War demands triggered manufacturing expansion. Soon the new economic process was largely controlled by the utilisation of iron, as well as electric and steam power.

For discussing this topic, it is necessary to consider the economic and industrial effect that Chinese Immigrants had brought to the country around the time, weather the law actually solve the problems on job competition, the long-term effect this law had brought to the future Chinese Immigrants and the basic American value on human rights. After deeply analyzing those factors, it will show weather the Chinese Exclusion Act is a necessary law to protect the American workers or is it just another racial prejudice in American History. There was a lot of background and causes behind the pass of Chinese Exclusion Act, so it is necessary to understand those features first before discussing whether the U.S government should pass the Chinese Exclusion Act.

Apart from the social injustices, the progression and good far outweighed the bad. It was two steps forward and one step back while the economic effects were one huge leap forward and a just as big step back. There were more than a handful of inventions and discoveries that revolutionized American society, led to urban sprawl, made tasks exponentially easier, and were the centerpiece for recreation. Cars were mass produced and people decided to live outside the cities and take vacations more frequently. They produced many new jobs with the need for new roads since the American landscape was drastically expanding.
In conclusion, there were many social, economic, and political reactions cause by industrialization and urbanization between 1890 and 1920. The Progressive movement was just one that arose during this time, introducing many reforms that can still be seen today.
