本文通过文献综述的方式探讨了b2c电子商务的移动性和可达性效应。主要问题是b2c电子商务如何影响(a)个人活动模式和旅行行为,(b)企业的货运和物流决策,以及(c)家庭和企业的选址决策。回顾显示,b2c电子商务的直接(短期)流动性效应相对明显,个人旅行和货物运输的整体增长都是可以预期的。然而,由于复杂的关系、时间滞后、数据问题和方法(归因)问题,物理可达性和流动性的间接(长期)变化不太明确,也更难处理。尽管如此,b2c电子商务分销系统的分散化和郊区化进程可能会逐渐延伸和转移,分别向荷兰更偏远和人口密度更低的地区。这将加强这些地区正在进行的零售商店关闭的进程,即零售设施的空间重新分配,从而限制了实际可达性。因此,购物的平均行程长度和汽车使用量总体上可能会增加。由于b2c电子商务,货运也在增加,其整体的长期影响可能是机动机动性的增加,城市消费者为购物目的节省了旅行,而其他地方的消费者则增加了他们的旅行负担。然而,只有某些产品对电子商务是可行的。因此,b2c电子商务对移动性和可访问性的影响因产品类别而异。版权所有(c) 2004荷兰皇家地理学会KNAG。
This paper explores the mobility and accessibility effects of business-to-consumer (b2c) e-commerce by means of a literature review. The main questions are how b2c e-commerce affects (a) individual activity patterns and travel behaviour, (b) the freight transport and logistic decisions of firms, and (c) the location decisions of households and firms. The review shows that the direct (short-term) mobility effects of b2c e-commerce are relatively clear, and that an overall increase in both individual travel and freight transport can be expected. The indirect (long-term) changes for physical accessibility and mobility, however, are less clear and harder to deal with, due to the complex relationships, time lags, data problems and methodological (attribution) problems. Still, it appears that processes of decentralisation and sub-urbanisation of distribution systems for b2c e-commerce may gradually extend and shift, respectively, towards more remote and less densely populated areas in the Netherlands. This would reinforce the ongoing process of retail store closures in these areas, i.e., the spatial redistribution in retailing facilities, thus limiting physical accessibility. As a result, average trip lengths and car use for shopping trips may on the whole increase. With freight transport also increasing due to b2c e-commerce, its overall long-term effect may be an increase in motorised mobility, with urban consumers saving trips for shopping purposes and consumers elsewhere adding to their travel burden. Only certain products are feasible for e-commerce, however. Hence, the impact of b2c e-commerce on mobility and accessibility varies between product categories.
