空间经济学研究范式分析

目前空间经济学正处在群雄纷起时期,研究角度不同、形式千差万别,以至于学者们难以在研究方法上达成共识,给初学者带来很大困惑,不利于学科研究的深入推进和推广。本文意在简化前期文献繁杂的理论推导过程,从中抽出一些能为学者们共同接受的假说、理论、准则和方法,规范其研究方法,促使其广泛深入地融入主流经济学。空间经济学基本研究范式是：设定收益递增和初始区域对称等前提,基于效用最大化和收益最大化原则,遵循产品多样化理论和垄断竞争理论,在D-S框架下运用“冰山”技术分析要素、产业和贸易的空间动态演化过程。空间经济学研究范式可向有空间维度的传统经济学、空间实证经济学、空间福利经济学三个方向拓展。

Analysis of Spatial Economics Research Pattern

Currently, spatial economics is at the stage which heroes spring up everywhere, and has different research directions and research methods so that the scholars are difficult to reach consensus on research methodologies, which bring big perplexity to initial learners and which make against deepening and popularizing of spatial economics research. This paper aims to simplify foregone complex theoretical deduction process of the literature to extract some hypotheses, theories, principles and methods from the literature which can be accepted by scholars in order to promote spatial economics to be integrated into main economics. The basic research pattern of spatial economics is to use Iceberg technique to analyze a spatial dynamic evolution process among factors, industries and trade by setting the premise such as yield increase and initial region symmetry and so on, based on the principle of utility maximization and profit maximization, by following product diversification theory and monopolistic competition theory and under D-S analysis framework. Spatial economics research pattern can be extended from three directions such as spatial-dimension traditional economics, spatial empirical economics and spatial welfare economics.
