中文摘要：

区域产业集聚要素主要分析行为主体要素、生产要素、支撑要素、时空要素、社会文化制度。区域产业集聚结构主要包括生产结构、空间结构与组织结构。产业在一定区域集聚发展有一定的功能效益，产业集聚发展有助于竞争力的提高，区域产业集聚的理想状态是促进区域可持续发展。对区域产业集聚机制的分析，从要素流动、区位因素、需求与成本因素、技术进步、分工、贸易等角度展开，侧重分析全球化与市场机制。对区域产业集聚的一般规律进行探讨，包括集聚与扩散的统一规律、周期发展规律等。区域产业集聚是在动态发展变化的，区域产业集聚具有开放性。区域产业集聚体现了产业集聚与区域之间的辨证关系，是人地关系的集中体现。区域产业集聚研究是地理学人地关系系统研究的重要命题。

英文摘要：

The paper puts forward the skeleton of regional industrial agglomeration, including factors, structure, function, mechanism and laws. The factors include main body, producing, bases, time and space, social culture and institution. The structure has three aspects including producing structure, spatial structure and organizational structure. With the development of industrial agglomeration, city or region will improve the competitiveness and sustainable development. Mechanism of industrial agglomeration has many aspects including factors flowing and location selecting, cost decreasing and benefit driving, knowledge sharing and technique progressing, trade pulling and globe responding, planning force and market force. Under the new backgrounds mechanism of industrial agglomeration in old industrial base should be changed. Function of market in collocating resources should be enforced, enterprises＇ management and pattern should be changed and knowl gional industrial agglomeration should be in harmony with globalization and edge forces should be enlarged. Renation＇s development. Regional industrial agglomeration should harmony with population, resources and environment. Territorial production complex should be improved, and many kinds of models of industrial agglomeration should be fostered. The general law of regional industrial agglomeration embodies on periodicity and the systematics of agglomeration and disper sion. The development of regional industrial agglomeration has the characteristic of dynamics and openness. Study on regional industrial agglomeration is an important aspect of human geography. In China, as a response to globalization and foundation of socialist market economy, it is helpful for reconstruction of an agglomeration, and it is a key problem in studying regional industrialization and urbanization.
