东亚地区城市体系研究

东亚地区作为一个整体崛起于20世纪后期，而其城市则是构建东亚生产网络的关键节点。本文利用现有的5种计量方法来分析东亚地区城市体系的城市人口规模等级结构特征，发现：东亚地区的城市体系基本符合二倍律法则，而东亚诸国内部的城市规模等级结构可以大致分成“正金字塔型”和“纺锤型”两种类型；城市体系的城市分形维度很低，基本上都属于首位型的位序一规模分布。

Study on Urban System in East Asian Region

East Asian Region is one of the fastest growing regions in late 20th century,whose cities are the key nodes to construct East Asian production network. With five existing measurement methods,this paper analyzes scale-rank structure characteristics of urban system in East Asia on population,and then finds that： it is basically in line with the 2n law,while population scale-class structure of urban system in various countries can be roughly divided into ＂positive pyramid type＂and ＂spindle type＂;the city fractal dimension of their urban system are very low and basically belong to the rank-size distribution of the primate type.
