经济地理学研究中的产业集群

在经济地理学的研究中,传统区位理论早在20世纪初即已开始从企业区位选择的角度来考察产业集聚的形成.20世纪80年代以来的全球化和地方化背景下,与产业集群有关的企业网络、新产业区、区域创新系统等问题受到关注.至于新经济地理学,则是基于报酬递增和不完全竞争,运用主流经济学的方法来对经济活动的空间集聚及其动力进行模型化分析的.当前,国际经济地理学的多角度转向也相应带来了产业集群研究的多元化特点,因此,我国的产业集群研究应结合这一特定背景,以经济地理学(包括新经济地理学方法)为基础,结合多学科、多领域的理论研究成果,进而形成并突出集群研究中的中国特色.

Industrial Clusters Study in Economic Geography

Industrial agglomeration and clusters have been associated tightly with the development of economic geography.Beginning from the traditional location theory which studies location choice of enterprises and their geographical concentration,some issues were paid close attention such as enterprises' network and new industrial districts and regional innovation system based on globalization and localization in 20 century 80 years.And then,based on increasing returns to scale and imperfect competition,new economic geography modelized the space agglomeration dynamic of economic activity.At present,studies related industrial clusters become many faceted correspondingly when the theories and methods of international economic geography show more diversification and complication.The industrial cluster study in China should combine this special background,base on the methods of economic geography,and integrate the theories in other related fields,in order to form and stand out China's characteristic in the study of industrial clusters.
