采用文献信息分析的方法对21世纪前10年中国区域旅游研究进行了系统分析和评价。研究发现,现有研究主要集中在区域旅游竞争与合作、区域旅游规划、区域旅游产业、区域旅游竞争力、区域旅游系统与空间结构等五个方面。从内容上看,现有研究与区域旅游发展的时代特征之间具有显著的相关性,"以任务带学科"的研究路径仍是这一时期的主流,区域旅游在理论建构方面并没有取得重大进展;而从研究方法上看,现有研究存在过度主观性和过度注重数理技术的应用两种极端倾向。文章最后指出,区域旅游研究应在继续遵循服务产业发展实际的基础上,从对现实问题的解决中提炼出具有学术价值的理论问题,保持对固有研究传统传承的同时,积极寻求理论创新是推动区域旅游研究进步和区域旅游学术发展的必然。
There are a lot of changes happened in the first 10 years of the 21st century,such as the status of tourism industry is elevated,the regional tourism development environment is continuously optimized.Compared with its predecessors,both in the external environment and its industrial practice,the regional tourism development have shown a series of new features.To summarize the focus,achievements and facing problems of regional tourism during this period from the perspective of academic research,which is not only able to clarify the areas of tourism on the contribution of the tourism academic research and achievements,but also for the new situation from the theoretical response change,guide the development of tourism practices,the implementation of the "twelve-five" tourism planning and even its sustainable development of regional tourism is of great significance.The literatures of regional tourism research in the first 10 years of 21st century are analyzed and evaluated by using Information Analysis Method.The results show that the current research on this domain are mainly focused on five aspects,which are competition and cooperation of regional tourism,regional tourism planning,tourism industry,regional tourism competitiveness,regional tourism system and its spatial structure.There are significant correlations between the contents and its characteristics of regional tourism development in this period,the characteristics of "Practice to promote academy" is still more obvious,but the aspects of theoretical construction of regional tourism has not made significant progress.At the same time,from the viewpoint of research method,there exist two kinds of significant trends——lack of standard quantity research method or pay much attention to mathematical method.Finally,the article pointed out that the study of regional tourism continue to follow the path to service its industry on the basis of actual,real problems from the extract with the academic value of the theoretical issues and realize the tradition of
