摘要慕尼黑大都市区（MMA）正在成为一个多中心的城市区域。长期以来，单中心城市模型为理解私人家庭和企业的选址决策提供了强大的解释力。然而，这种模式受到了大型多中心城市地区的挑战。通勤范围的扩大和经济活动的空间重组同时表现出集中和分散的格局，但在不同的空间尺度上。本文综述了近年来空间驱动力及其发展的相关理论。我们使用聚集和网络优势的相互作用来描述MMA的空间演变，新的次级中心的出现。公开数据和大规模网络调查为描述性和多变量统计分析提供了基础。我们发现-也许并不奇怪，仍然是相同的驱动力的单中心城市模型-可达性和经济竞争-在工作中：MMA的公共交通铁路网络仍然形成一个放射状和单中心系统，而目前的使用空间的居民显示出越来越多的多中心模式与明确的切线关系。然后，我们讨论了未来的空间功能的MMA的发展道路，通过投球目前强劲的人口和就业增长，其趋势与大都市化的替代发展道路与竞争的驱动力。最后，我们可视化和讨论的替代空间发展，同时项目的集中，分散和分散的动态。
ABSTRACT The Munich Metropolitan Area (MMA) is embarking on becoming a more polycentric urban region. For long, the monocentric city model has provided strong explanatory power in understanding the location decisions of private households and firms. However, this model has been challenged by the emergence of large, polycentric city-regions. Increasing commute ranges and the spatial reorganization of economic activities show patterns of concentration and deconcentration at the same time but on different spatial scales. This paper gives an overview of and theorizing about the spatial driving forces and development within recent years. We use the interplay of agglomeration and network advantages to describe the spatial evolution of the MMA where new secondary centers emerge. Publicly available data and a large-scale web-survey provide the basis for descriptive and multivariate statistical analyses. We find – maybe not surprisingly that still the same driving forces of the monocentric city model – accessibility and economic competition – are at work: the MMA’s public transport rail network still forms a radial and monocentric system, while the present use of space by inhabitants shows an increasingly polycentric pattern with explicit tangential relations. We then discuss the future spatio-functional development path of the MMA by pitching the current strong population and employment growth with its tendency toward metropolisation against an alternative development path with competing driving forces. We conclude with visualizing and discussing the alternative spatial development that simultaneously projects concentration, deconcentration, and dispersion dynamics.
