摘要：城市作为商品的消费中心、集散中心和生产中心，同时也是区域经济的核心。以大都市为核心的区域经济已经是当今世界经济发展的主要动力之一，城市经济主导全球经济已经成为必然。随着社会生产力的飞速发展，我国主要城市在区域经济发展和区域经济一体化中的地位越来越重要。而城市作为物流活动的集中地之一，城市物流的发展对城市经济的发展具有强大的辐射作用。大力发展城市物流对城市经济的正常运行和增强城市经济竞争优势，具有十分重要的意义。

　　　苏州市作为长三角区域经济最发达的地区之一，其城市物流业的发展已取得了一定的成就，并在长三角区域经济一体化的进程中起着重要作用。因此，本文以苏州市为研究对象，采用定性分析与定量分析相结合的方法，重点阐述其城市物流业的发展对经济的弹性和贡献度，在此基础上提出了苏州地区城市物流发展的对策建议，从而为我国其他地区构建一个协调发展的城市物流体系提供借鉴。

Abstract：City as a commodity consumption centers, distribution centers and production centers, at the same time it is also the core of the regional economy. Regional economic which make the metropolis as the core is one of the main driving force of economic development in the world today, urban economic leading the global economy has been inevitable. With the rapid development of social productivity, the position of the major cities of our country becomes increasingly important in regional economic development and regional economic integration. While the city is one of the logistics activity concentration, the development of city logistics has a strong radiation effect on the city economic. It is so meaningful of developing the city logistics vigorously. It will make the city economic operate normally and enhance the competitive advantage of city economic.

     As one of the most economically development regions of the Yangtze River Delta, Suzhou’s logistics development has obtained certain achievement. And it plays an important role in the process of regional economic integration of the Yangtze River Delta. Therefore, Suzhou City is used as the research object in this paper. We use qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis combined and focus on the logistics of Suzhou and Suzhou economic interaction between analysis on the development of the logistics industry in Suzhou City, the flexibility and economic contribution. On this fundament, it puts out the solutions to city logistics, in order to provide some references for other areas of our country to construct a harmonious development of city logistics system.

　　　从国内外学者对城市物流的相关研究的文献综述中可以看出，城市物流正越来越受到重视，对区域经济发展的影响也越来越大。但由于我国城市物流的研究还处于起步阶段，目前学术界并没有一个相对统一的城市物流的定义。因此，许多学者将城市物流认为是“城市范围内的物流活动”，忽略了城市物流作为区域物流的中心和节点，城市物流对其所在区域的辐射作用。很多学者对城市物流与区域经济的关系做了大量研究，发现城市物流与区域经济相互依存，共同发展；但在城市物流对经济贡献的量化研究方面并不多，很少有学者全面系统地用定量研究方法对城市物流发展对经济的贡献度进行分析。尽管有这些问题存在，但国内外学者前期的研究成果已经为本文的展开奠定了丰富的理论基础，使本文结合苏州市的实际情况，运用科学合理的方法对城市物流发展对经济的贡献度进行具体分析与评价成为了可能。
