International Trade Flow and Optimal Capacity of Global Logistics Distribution Centers along the Belt and Road

主题：International Trade Flow and Optimal Capacity of Global Logistics Distribution Centers along the Belt and Road
主要内容：The Belt and Road Initiative since 2013 in tandem with China’s global “going-out” strategy have promoted the ports supply chains (PSC) development along the Belt and Road (B&R). Arguing that the PSC has promoted strategic motivation to establish global logistics distribution centers (LDC) along B&R, Lee et al. (2021) proposed eight global LDCs based on the concepts of “centrality” and “intermediacy” as well as major criteria such as geographical characteristics, transportation networks and regional markets. This presentation attempts to estimate international trade flow in terms of container TEUs and to decide optimal capacity of LDCs along the B&R.
