“生产网络范式”在不同空间尺度的应用评述

20世纪末＂生产网络范式＂取代了＂现代企业范式＂成为世界生产组织方式的主流,随之生产网络成为了西方经济地理学的研究热点之一。本文综述了西方学者从不同视角对生产网络的理解,概括了生产网络所具有的几个重要特征,对生产网络在不同尺度的应用进行了评述。总体上看,生产网络对解释各尺度经济现象都具有重要的作用,但相比国际、区域和全球等大尺度生产网络的广泛研究,国家和地方中小尺度的生产网络明显受到忽视。事实上,在大尺度生产网络的研究基础和背景下,国家生产网络在构建国家创新系统上、地方生产网络在分析地方经济上将会发挥更加重要的作用。

The Review on Applications of Production Networks Paradigm to Different Geographical Scales

Production Networks Paradigm has become the main mode of global production arrangement after it replaced Modern Corporation Paradigm,and then become one of the recent stirring research themes in contemporary mainstream economic geography.This paper reviews the researches on the concept of Production Networks of diffenrent western schoolars,summarizes its several characteristics,and argues its applications to different scales.Above all,production networks are helpful to analyze different scalable economy.However,compared with comprehensive researches on international,regional and global production networks,national and local production networks（NPNs and LPNs） as tools to analyze national and local economy have been neglected all along.In fact,based on a large number of relative researches on large scale production networks,NPNs and LPNs will play more important role in constructing narional innovative system and analyzing local economy respectively.
