Features: The dual structure of urban and rural areas is the most prominent feature of China's economy and also a significant contradiction that restricts economic development at the current stage. The transformation from a dual economy to a single economy is the goal of economic development, and this transformation is inevitably accompanied by the process of urbanization. There is an interactive mechanism between urbanization and the transformation of the dual economy: moderate urbanization is conducive to promoting the transformation of the dual economy, while lagging or excessive urbanization will hinder this transformation. The transformation of the dual economy is a complex process involving various economic and social aspects. Urbanization is a comprehensive reflection of economic development and social progress, and it is a comprehensive operational mechanism for human society to transform from a rural society to an urban society. The author focuses on the relationship between urbanization and the transformation of the dual economy, studying how urbanization can promote the transformation of the dual economy.
