Abstract

Although there has been a great change in the Chinese logistics industry, there have been few studies on the research trends of logistics in China. Existing research has been conducted on subdivision topics such as transportation efficiency, warehouse location and port efficiency. In this study, the research trends of logistics in China from 2000 to 2017 were analyzed using SNA method. The data were collected from foreign journals and a total of 82 related papers were used for analysis. The first period (2000-2008) was derived from the top keywords such as "Globalization", "Hong Kong", "FDI" and "outsousing". The results of the second period (2009-2013) were derived from keywords such as "international trade" and "reverse logistics", and in the third period (2013-2017) "3PL", "warehousing", "railways" "supply chain", "economic", "port" and "Belt and Road" The analysis of China's logistics using SNA method shows that the research trend of China's logistics is evolving as China is changing rapidly under the globalization context.

중국 물류 산업에 큰 변화가 있었음에도 중국 물류의 연구 동향에 대한 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 기존 연구는 운송 효율성, 창고 위치 및 항만 효율 등과 같은 세분화된 주제로 연구가 진행되었다. 본 연구에서는 2000년부터 2017년까지 중국 물류의 연구 동향을 SNA방법을 이용하여 분석하였다. 자료는 해외저널에서 수집되었으며, 총 82 개 관련 학술지가 분석대상으로 사용되었다. 2000년에서 2017년까지 기간을 나누어 분석을 진행하였고, 첫 번째 기간 (2000-2008)은 "Globalization", "Hong Kong", "FDI" 및 "outsousing"과 같은 키워드가 상위 키워드로 도출되었다. 두 번째 기간(2009-2013)의 결과는 "internation trade", 및 "reverse logistics"와 같은 키워드들이 도출되었고, 세 번째 기간(2013-2017)에는 "3PL", "warehousing", "railways", "supply chain", "economic", "port" 및 "Belt and Road"등의 키워드가 상위로 나타났다. SNA 방법을 사용한 중국물류 연구 트렌드 분석 결과, 세계화 상황에서 중국이 급속히 변화함에 따라 중국 물류의 연구동향이 진화하고 있음을 보여주고 있다.
