    Learning objectives 2.3
    You know how a western and non-western city is built up.

    Non-western: Chaotic because of fast growth. One or more CBD, scattered industral sites, gated communities for the rich and slum districts where the rich don't want to live.

    You understand that urbanisation is increasing now more often in the peripheral zone of the city.
