尽管在理论观点上存在着深刻的差异，但现在人们普遍认为，在当代全球化的条件下，主要城市是由流经它们的东西（再）产生的，而不是固定在它们内部的东西。在这个“世界城市网络”的范围内比较城市的地位意味着需要关系数据和跨国数据。本文使用这一出发点来对比美国城市的连接配置文件，通过绘制一个独特的航空公司数据集，它允许比较一个城市的连接在国内和国外的重要性。
Despite profound differences in theoretical perspectives, it is now widely accepted that under conditions of contemporary globalization key cities are (re)produced by what flows through them rather than what is fixed within them. Comparing the position of cities in the context of this "world city network" implies that relational and transnational data are required. This paper uses this starting point to contrast the connectivity profiles of U.S. cities by drawing on a unique airline dataset, which allows comparing the importance of a city's connections within and without its own country.
