全球城市的研究脉络、理论论争与前沿领域

RESEARCH PROGRESS,THEORETICAL DEBATES AND FRONTIER FIELDS OF THE GLOBAL CITY

全球城市是控制和影响全球政治经济文化的枢纽型城市。系统梳理中外全球城市研究热点、理论争论及研究领域演化,比较东西方全球城市研究视角提出新国际形势下全球城市研究前沿及其可能范式。研究发现:(1)全球城市被分为超全球城市、新兴全球城市及全球城市国家三类,重点探讨了全球城市的起源与概念、成长机理与类型划分、规模—网络—等级和专业化分工等;(2)中国学界从引介世界城市概念及其识别指标、形成机制等领域逐渐转向全球城市的功能与作用、比较与评价、培育策略等。(3)新全球化形势下全球城市研究应关注尺度(政治)与全球城市构建、动力、制度与培育实践导向三层次展望提出世界形势变革背景下全球城市研究重点。

Global city,as hub city,controls and influences global politics,economy and culture.This research systematically sorts out the research hotspots,theoretical debates and the evolution of research fields in global city at home and abroad,and compares the perspectives of global city research between China and the West,and proposes new possible paradigms of global city research under the new globalization situation.The research found that:1)Global cities are divided into three types:Super-global cities,emerging global cities,and global city-state,focusing on the origin and concept of global city,growth mechanism and its types specialization division and other issues from the perspective of scale-network-level;2)Chinese scholars have gradually shifted from introducing the concept of global city and its identification indicators,formation mechanisms and other fields to the functions and roles,comparison and evaluation of global cities;3)The further research of global city under the new globalization situation should pay attention to scalar politics and construction,dynamics,institutions of global cities and proposeresearch focus of global city in the context of the world situation changes.
