Resumen:
The chapter is part of the World Culture Report. It reviews the processes of urbanization in the world, and looks then at the types and functions of cities in the world. Cities are sites of exchange and of migration. This necessarily involves cultural diversity and cultural exchange, leading to identity formation. Patterns of conflict and collaboration are then discussed.
