中国近代工业道路的历史反思

中国近代工业道路形成于19世纪后半期的半殖民地半封建社会,其形成的前提条件、产生方式、组成结构、行业发展和资本积累等方面,都具有与一般资本主义国家所不同的独特性,给我们今天的工业现代化建设留下了深刻的教训。     

再论环渤海港口运输体系的建设与布局

环渤海地区已经成为我国的发展热点,其中环渤海港口运输体系有着重要作用和地位。本文在论述环渤海港口运输体系发展背景的基础上,探讨了环渤海港口运输体系自"九五计划"以来的发展状况和目前存在的问题,在论述发展现状时注意与1992年的比较,而存在问题有:①港口运量不足,港口生产能力过剩;②缺乏总体规划和宏观调控,港口之间缺乏合理的分工和协作;③三足鼎立的集装箱枢纽港建设局面;④港口运输体系信息化发展速度慢,技术手段落后等。最后就港口运输体系建设与布局的提出了进行总体规划、建设集装箱枢纽港、建设港口物流平台、发展陆桥经济、提高软环境建设等具体的建议和措施。     

基于非线性动力学模式的城市道路与人口的平衡分析

城市道路的发展状况已经成为制约城市社会经济发展的"瓶颈",许多地区采取了各种各样的措施来缓解交通压力,但是收效甚微,关键在于我们没有从根本上认识产生这一现象的根源。本文通过建立城市道路与人口的非线性动力学模式,分析城市道路与人口之间的关系。     

近代中国历史发展选择了社会主义道路

中国走上社会主义道路是近代中国历史发展的结果,是历史的选择。近代以来的历史还表明,马克思主义在中国的发展有其必然性,假设中国走资本主义道路结果如何是毫无意义的,而且中国人对大同理想的追求也有助于他们对社会主义的接受;在中国,革命是社会主义和现代化的前提,社会主义与工业化是同时展开的;在当今形势下,"一个中心,两个基本点"依然是我们开展各项事业的基本路线,将中国特色社会主义与民主社会主义相混淆是违背历史事实的。     

论贵州驿道文化线路的价值构成——以明奢香驿道线路为研究个案

贵州驿道文化线路的价值构成是多层面的,既有作为驿道整体的文化价值,包括散落其间的不可移动和可移动文物自身的历史价值,及因驿道而产生的不同区域间交流、对话的非物质文化遗产价值,又有驿道赖以存在的生态价值和驿道沿线自然景观、人文遗迹等不可再生的文化生态旅游价值。     

DIGITAL COMMUNICATION, TRANSPORTATION AND URBAN STRUCTURATION IN STUDENTS' DAILY LIFE

This article explores how the use of digital communication in distributed education influences urban students' daily life movements and communication patterns. From this point the article also discusses how the structuration of urban life interplays with the socio-spatial organization of a given city. Time-geography is used as an analytical frame for analysing the time-space of the students, wherein the intersection between the social, technical, and spatial organization of the city is the main focus of interest. The discussion shows how the use of the Internet enabled the students to sustain the basic spatial organization of their life while attending higher education. At the same time, the meaning of places in their daily life was changed through the use of the Internet, especially with respect to the students' homes. It is argued that the use of communication technology contributes to the reproduction of the socio-spatial organization of the city.     

Dynamic road pricing and the value of time and reliability

High Occupancy Toll (HOT) lanes that use dynamic pricing to manage congestion and generate revenue are increasingly popular. In this paper, we estimate the behavioral response of drivers to dynamic pricing in an HOT lane. The challenge in estimation lies in the simultaneity of price and demand: the structure of dynamic tolling ensures that prices increase as more drivers enter the HOT lane. Prior research has found that higher prices in HOT lanes increase usage. We find that after controlling for simultaneity HOT drivers instead respond to tolls in a manner consistent with economic theory. The average response to a 10 percent increase in the toll is a 1.6 percent reduction in usage. Drivers primarily value travel reliability over time savings, although there is heterogeneity in the relative values of time and reliability based on time of day and destination to or from work. The results highlight the importance of both controlling for simultaneity when estimating demand for dynamically priced toll roads and treating HOT lanes with dynamic prices as a differentiated product with bundled attributes.     

“路学”视角下公路交通对旅游地的影响维度与机制研究

“路学”是关于道路功能、时空演化及其区域影响的理论,为研究公路交通对旅游地影响提供新视角。借鉴“路学”构建“公路建设及其作用-公路对旅游地的影响-公路与旅游地交互响应”结构模型。结果表明：公路交通对旅游地的影响表现在经济、社会、文化和生态等维度,且具有正向影响。公路在增强旅游地通达性、刺激经济发展和改变生态环境的同时,也具有鲜明的社会文化特性,改变着人们的旅游经历与体验方式,引发地方重构和社会重塑。经济和生态维度对交旅响应有着正向影响,社会和文化维度影响不显著,交旅交互响应对公路交通建设影响不显著。进而基于生产、使用、建构和消费构建影响机制,以期为促进交旅协调发展提供新的理论视角和科学依据。     

Gendered mobilities in the making: moving from a pedestrian to vehicular mobility landscape in Shimshal,Pakistan

Although feminist geographers understand gender and mobility as mutually constitutive social processes, few studies explain how gender relations are constituted in particular mobility contexts, and how and why they shape mobility patterns in specific socio-spatial circumstances. We address these questions in an analysis of gendered mobilities in Shimshal, Pakistan, which until recently have taken shape in the context of a pedestrian mobility regime. The gender and mobility relationship has transformed as vehicular mobilities have replaced pedestrian mobilities with the construction of the Shimshal road. To demonstrate empirically the co-constitution of gender and mobility, we analyze aspects of socio-spatial context that have shaped gendered pedestrian mobilities, followed by those associated with the new vehicular mobility regime that are modifying gender relations in Shimshal. Shifting gender relations reshape corporeal mobility patterns. Road infrastructure has enhanced men’s and youth’s outbound travel as wage earners and students, respectively. These mobilities have reshaped women’s capacity to move, constraining their mobility beyond the village. As prosperity becomes contingent on outbound movement, men’s and youths’ social horizons and mobilities are expanding, while women’s compromised access to mobility as a social resource produces new mobility hierarchies and gendered exclusions.
