Reasons for the acceleration of urbanization in the United States in the 1950s and 1960s.

The acceleration of urbanization is actually the rapid economic development, just like the acceleration of urbanization in China now, because of the rapid economic development. Especially in coastal areas, such as Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangzhou.

So why did the American economy develop rapidly in the fifties and sixties, that is, after the end of World War II? Personally, I think:

As we all know, the reasons are: staying away from the battlefield, plundering capital, arms business and so on.

But I think these are not decisive factors.

But the plunder of talents, or to put it mildly, the protection and introduction of talents.

Provide security protection, working environment (a good laboratory to display talents), good treatment and so on for talents in many countries in the world.

Einstein is probably the person we can talk about most.

When Germany pursued the Jews, Einstein fled to the United States, and his equation of mass and energy directly led to the generation of the atomic bomb.

Even an atomic bomb can be built, so how much benefit (economic benefit) can others have to the United States?

There are many in China, some fled to the founding of the People's Republic after World War II, and many did not return.

There are other countries. ...

For an enterprise and a country to rise and be in an invincible position, I think the most important thing is talent, so the United States can rise rapidly.

In fact, we should think more about why Germany, or Japan, has risen so fast.
