| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The research examined the characteristics of Mega-Regions which have rapidly grown in contemporary India. Our field survey in Delhi metropolitan region and its surrounding areas clarified that Indian Mega-Regions which are beyond individual metropolitan areas play an important role as industrial clusters, functional spaces of urbanization economy and consumption spaces of middle classes. The growth of Mega-Regions has been concentrated to the western part of India. Therefore it is expected to widen regional disparities.
