物流的定义及其他——与王槐林、刘明菲先生商榷

The Definition of Logistics and the Like

物流的定义多种多样,林林总总,但都没有把生产过程包括到物流的活动中,只有王槐林、刘明菲先生主编的《物流管理学》却把生产活动当作物流的重要内容之一,并概括在物流的定义之中。这种观点如果成立,将给有关理论和实践造成很大混乱。

The definition of logistics varies greatly from one another, but the process of production is not included in the activity of logistics.It is only the book named The Logistics Management edited by WANG Huai-lin and LIU Ming-fei that expounds the production activity and summarizes it in the definition of logistics.However, it will cause a mess to related theories if this kind of viewpoint is adopted.
