以地理类学术期刊文献为基础,分别对地理学视角下中国城市群研究的发展历程、研究内容进行梳理,发现:(1)“空间界限”不明确,城市群划分有待统一;(2)“物质空间”观察较多,“社会空间”关注较少;(3)“空间重要性”受到重视,但“空间构筑”仍待加强;(4)“宏观尺度”及彼此交互关注较少等特点。最后建议应当进一步关注交通网络对城市群空间流动性的影响、新经济版图对城市群经济空间构建的影响以及对新理论范式的引入与发展。
Based on the geographical documents, this paper reviews the research of urban agglomerations in China. The result shows: the spatial boundary is not clear enough and the definition of urban agglomeration needs to be unified; more attention is paid to "physical space" while less is paid to "social space"; the essentiality of space is emphasized, but the spatial construction is to be strengthened; the researches under macro-scale and interaction are less focused. The paper suggests the geographical researchers should pay closely attention to the influences of traffic network on the space mobility and the new economic layout on the economic space construction; also on the introduce and development of new theoretical paradigm.
