Abstract :
Abstract Urbanization is a global phenomenon reshaping societies and altering social dynamics. This paper investigates the implications of urbanization on social cohesion through a comparative study. Utilizing a mixed-method approach, this research analyzes urban areas across diverse geographical contexts to explore the relationship between urbanization and social cohesion. The study identifies key factors influencing social cohesion in urban settings, including demographics, economic disparities, cultural diversity, and community engagement. Findings suggest that while urbanization can foster social interactions and diversity, it also poses challenges to social cohesion, such as alienation, inequality, and urban fragmentation. Understanding these dynamics is essential for policymakers and urban planners to develop strategies that promote inclusive and cohesive urban environments.
