空间视角下城乡物流网络的内涵、构成要素与研究框架

地理学视角的物流网络研究已成为物流科学领域的热点方向。从地理学的空间视角出发，在明确城乡物流网络理论来源和相关概念的基础上，对城乡物流网络的内涵、构成及研究框架进行梳理。基于研究，首先给出了城乡物流网络的定义，认为城乡物流网络的本质是旧的城市物流网络和乡村物流网络在空间上的延伸、衔接和提效。其次，从空间视角将城乡物流网络分解为节点、连线和域面3要素，指出网络各要素均出现了功能强化和更新，如节点的管理、衔接和经济社会功能强化；连线的联结功能和平衡功能出现，域面的协同组织、动态调整功能突出。最后，遵循地理学“格局-过程-机理-决策”的科学逻辑，提出“数据采集与融合、要素映射与解析、时空比较与分析、机理探究与优化”4个模块的城乡物流网络分析框架，为深刻揭示城乡物流网络结构及其演化机理提供基础。进一步指出未来应探讨城乡物流节点、连线、域面及网络的地区类型、区域适宜性及要素间相互作用机制，提炼适应不同区域、能有效提升要素流通效应的多尺度空间组织模式，加强对城乡要素流通系统的科学认知，科学支撑城乡地域融合发展实践。

Connotation,constituent elements and research framework of urban-rural logistics network from the perspective of space

This paper first composed the scientific definition of urban-rural logistics network from the spatial perspective, then analyzed the elements of urban-rural logistics network with reference to the basic framework of spatial structure theory and the corresponding functional characteristics of each element. The results are as follows: 1) In this paper, urban-rural logistics network is defined as an integrated spatial network that promotes the efficient flow of factors within the urban-rural geographical scope with multi-directional connecting channels and multi-level logistics nodes as the basic carrier in the process of urban-rural integration. It is also argued that urban-rural logistics network is a novel form of logistics organization in the stage of urban-rural integration. The essence of urban-rural logistics network includes the spatial extension, convergence and efficiency improvement of the existing urban logistics network and rural logistics network. 2) From the spatial perspective, the elements of urban-rural logistics network can be decomposed into three elements: node, connection and domain surface. It is pointed out that each element of the network has experienced functional strengthening and renewal. For example, the management and economic function of nodes has been strengthened in urban-rural logistics network. Besides that, the link and balance functions of linkage appeared, and the organize and adjust functions of domain surface are highlighted. 3) Following the scientific logic of “pattern-process-mechanism-decision” in geography, the analysis framework of urban-rural logistics network from spatial perspective is proposed to establish the structure of urban-rural logistics network and its evolution mechanism. Finally, our research pointed out that we should further to explore the regional types, regional suitability and interaction mechanisms of urban-rural logistics elements, and refine spatial organization models of multi-scale region, so as to strengthen the scientific knowledge of urban-rural logistics systems and scientifically support the practice of urban-rural integration.
