“中心地理论”是基于距离探讨城镇在地理空间上规模与分布的重要理论，但随着信息与通信技术的不断发展，距离的影响不断减弱，其理论适用性遭到质疑。本文通过梳理信息与通信技术背景下中心地理论研究与运用的变化，发现以下趋势：研究对象与学科领域已变得丰富多元；距离不再是中心地的唯一影响因素；多种研究方法结合且更关注城镇发展的动态变化。此外，最新研究认为，虽然“中心”概念在逐渐消失，理论所探讨的维度与尺度较为单一，但在区域研究以及特定条件下该理论依然适用。最后，本文提出该理论在城市韧性、空间距离要素再评估、虚拟中心地等领域的研究展望，并总结其发展的历史规律，提出城市科学研究应关注问题本身，减少工具依赖。
Abstract：Central Place Theory is a pivotal framework for exploring the scale and distribution of towns in geographical spaces, primarily considering the factor of distance. However, with the progressive advancement of information and communications technology(ICT), the impact of distance has been diminishing, raising questions about the applicability of this theory. Firstly, this paper reviews the changes in research and application of Central Place Theory before and after the advent of the ICT era. The review indicates that: the subjects and academic fields of study have become more diverse and multifaceted; distance is no longer the sole influencing factor for central places; a combination of various research methodologies is being employed, focusing on dynamic changes. Furthermore, recent studies suggest that while the concept of “center” is gradually fading and the dimensions and scales explored by Central Place Theory are somewhat limited, the theory still holds relevance in regional studies and under specific conditions. Finally, this paper proposes future research prospects for the theory in the realms of urban resilience, reassessment of distance elements, and virtual central places. It concludes by summarizing the historical development patterns of the theory and reflects on the need for urban science research to focus more on the issues themselves, reducing reliance on tools.
