摘要

区域科学是社会科学的一个学术领域,应用分析和定量的方法来理解和解决城市、农村或区域问题。我们对1958 - 2021年间发表在6种区域科学旗舰期刊(包括《区域科学杂志》、《区域科学年鉴》、《区域科学与城市经济学》、《区域科学论文》、《区域科学政策与实践》和国际区域科学评论》)上的8509篇文章进行了文献计量分析。该分析提供了一个客观的数据驱动和前所未有的可视化领域的智力,社会和概念结构和趋势,从开始到现在。它还提供了区域科学认识论的丰富写照,并阐明了与区域科学教育和培训有关的问题。我们发现,区域科学已经远远超出了它的起源,从对理论和抽象的高度关注转向建模/模拟、实证分析和政策研究。我们还发现,人们越来越关注区域内的“人”和社会问题的空间特征,区域科学界本身也发生了一些重要的变化,特别是在合作模式和学术地理方面。本文的研究结果对未来区域科学的研究和教育方向提供了启示。

Rediscovering regional science: Positioning the field's evolving location in science and society

This study aims to provide a comprehensive examination of the evolution of regional science, a scholarly domain in the social sciences that applies analytical and quantitative approaches and methods to understand and address urban, rural, or regional problems. We conducted a bibliometric analysis of 8509 articles published in six regional science flagship journals (including the Journal of Regional Science, Annals of Regional Science, Regional Science and Urban Economics, Papers in Regional Science, Regional Science Policy and Practice, and International Regional Science Review) from 1958 to 2021. The analysis presents an objective data-driven and unprecedented visualization of the field's intellectual, social, and conceptual structure and trends from the beginning to the present. It also provides a rich portrayal of the epistemology of regional science and illuminates matters related to regional science education and training. We find that regional science has moved well beyond its origins, shifting away from a heavy focus on theory and abstraction to modeling/simulation, empirical analysis, and policy research. We also find that there has been increasing attention to “people” in regions and the spatial characteristics of social problems, and some important shifts in the regional science community itself, particularly in terms of patterns of collaboration and the geography of scholarship. The findings of this paper provide implications for future directions of research and education for regional science.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Regional Science (JRS) publishes original analytical research at the intersection of economics and quantitative geography. Since 1958, the JRS has published leading contributions to urban and regional thought including rigorous methodological contributions and seminal theoretical pieces. The JRS is one of the most highly cited journals in urban and regional research, planning, geography, and the environment. The JRS publishes work that advances our understanding of the geographic dimensions of urban and regional economies, human settlements, and policies related to cities and regions.
