地理视角下国内中欧班列研究进展与述评

Progress and review of research on China-Europe Railway Express in China from the geographical perspective

中欧班列自2011年开行以来,随着其国内国际影响力不断提升,逐渐成为中国学术界的研究热点之一。基于中国知网数据可以发现,中欧班列相关文献数量年均增长约70%,但发表在影响力较高期刊的文献占比还相对较低。从地理视角看,中国学者对中欧班列的研究主要集中在4个方面:一是测算班列具有竞争优势的区域范围,二是分析班列开行地区间的竞争博弈,三是优化班列运输网络的空间布局,四是分析班列的区域影响及其差异性。目前存在的短板主要包括:理论研究尚未紧跟实践,对整体改革的研究仍较缺乏,研究地域有待拓展等。建议在今后的研究中加快推进理论构建,多出系统性、针对性对策建议,在更大空间尺度内深耕细作。

Since the start of operation of the China-Europe Railway Express(CR Express) in 2011, with its increasing domestic and international influences, it has become one of the hotspots of academic research in China. Based on the data from the China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI) database, the number of publications related to the CR Express has increased by about 70% annually, but the proportion of those published in highly cited journals is still relatively low. From the geographical perspective, the research on the CR Express by Chinese scholars mainly focuses on four aspects: 1) estimation of its regional scope with competitive advantages;2) analysis of competition among the operating regions;3) optimization of the spatial layout of its transportation network;and 4) analysis of its regional impacts and differences. The shortcomings of the current research mainly include that theoretical research has not yet followed the practice;the research on the overall reform of the CR Express is still lacking;and the research is still limited to the national territory.Therefore, future research on the CR Express should accelerate the theoretical framework construction, produce more systematic and targeted countermeasure recommendations, and deepen the exploration at a larger spatial scale.
