生产性服务业的空间研究进展及其评述

Review of the Researches on Producer Services from an Angle of Space

20世纪80年代以来,人文地理学开始从空间角度探讨生产性服务业的一些问题,在这个过程中逐步形成了相关的理论和研究议题。其中从空间角度研究生产性服务业的理论主要分析其区位选择与空间分布,形成了中心地理论、竞租理论、空间选择性扩散理论和集聚理论等理论,研究议题则涉及生产性服务业的区位选择与模式、空间分布、生产性服务企业的空间行为以及生产性服务业空间分布的城市效应和区域效应等。从整体上而言,关于生产性服务的空间研究成果不断增多,研究领域不断拓展,为相关政策制定提供了理论和实证依据。但目前在学术理论上还没有形成生产性服务业空间研究的整体框架与理论架构,其空间分布与行业功能差异分析有待深入开展,微观层面服务企业的空间决策有待深入挖掘,对生产性服务生产与交易的性质及其与新经济空间动力学的关系有待进一步深入研究。

Since the 1980s,human geography has been involved in the research on producer services from the angle of space.Some related theories and research topics were gradually formed.The theory from the spatial view on the study of producer services concentrated on location choice and spatial layout largely,and formed the central place theory,bid-rent theory,spatial selective diffusion theory and agglomeration theory.The related issues included location choice,location mode and spatial layout of producer services,spatial behavior of ser-vice firms,and impact of the spatial layout of producer services on urban structure and regional economy.Over-all,the spatial research findings and fields of producer services were increasing,which became the theoretical and empirical basis for related policy formulation.But a whole and theoretical framework for the study of pro-ducer services from the angle of space has not been formed yet.The difference of spatial layout,industrial func-tion,and spatial decision-making of service firms need further studies,and the production and exchange charac-ter of producer services and their relevance to the dynamics of new economic spaces need to be explored in more details.
