Discussion on Evolution of Focal Points of China's Urbanization: Based on Keywords Analysis of Papers from CNKI during 1992-2011

Abstract:

Based on 24528 papers from China Knowledge Infrastructure during 1992-2011, we analyzed evolution of topics, theories, methods, and case regions. Results showed the hottest keywords changed from township enterprises, peasant workers to urbanization agglomeration, land use and environment. Evolution of hot topics is always tracing Chinese urbanization process. Theories are appearing dynamic, micro, and comprehensive. Dynamic econometric model has been main theory in industry structure research. Micro research on institutional modeling, urban agents environmental behaviors and peasant workers phycology has emerged. Modeling on land use and ecological environment effect has been more and more comprehensive. The hottest methods are mainly from statistical analysis. Evaluation on environmental effects of urbanization increases greatly in recent years while study on mechanisms of urbanization is still increasing slowly. Hottest case regions were mainly fast urbanization regions in East China including Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Guangdong, while West China was studied as a whole.
