Summary:碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 都市計劃學系碩博士班 === 91 === Because the impact of the Globalization affects the whole world heavily, the Regionalization theory which resist the impact is spread between the countries in the twentieth-one century. The models of Regionalization like EU, NAFTA are international organizations which highlight multinational corporations, symbiosis and resource integration. The members in international organizations have their own duty and functions. Although the international organizations are powerful and useful, there are a lot of international organizations failed to fight the impact of the Globalization and to exist. One of reasons why the international organizations are not always powerful and useful is that the duty and functions of the countries in the organizations are not distinct. In other words, if multinational corporations, symbiosis and resource integration don’t work well, international organizations will turn to be useless and bad for those members. So the distinction of the duty and functions of the countries are very important for an international organization. As we know, there are typical international organizations in the most important regions like EU in Europe and NAFTA in North America. However, the East-Asia region is also one of the most important regions in the world, but there are no any official international organizations in East-Asia region so far. If establishing an international organization of the East-Asia region, the first job of all is to make the East-Asia countries’ the duty and functions distinct, and knowing the competition of the development between the countries in the East-Asia region is of the first importance to confirm the duty and functions of them. In fact, knowing the competition of the development between East-Asia countries is not only good for making the East-Asia countries’ the duty and functions distinct but also good for the planning of the national land development. As we mention before, the impact of the Globalization affects the whole world including the relationship of countries, the interaction of regions, and even the society and economic transformation inside the country. Owing to increasing impact of the Globalization and Internaionalization, the society and economic transformation inside the country is affected more easily by the international and regional interaction. That’s the reason why discussing the competition of the development between the East-Asia countries is good for making strategies for the national land development .In Taiwan, the past studies about spatial development emphasized the spatial correlation inside the country, and even the studies about the space relationship between the countries were based on the enclosure. Nowadays we need new viewpoints and planning methods to face the new open order, therefore the study originating from the national land development is done in order to connect the international economic variation and internal planning, and help the government make the national land development strategies. Foreign scholars usually use the network analysis method to study the whole world countries’ relationship like countries’ the stratum and the interaction, but seldom use the network analysis to investigate the whole world countries’ relationship like the trade structure, since trade structure data is hard to search and collect ,and essential data collected is usually not precise. Michael E. Porter spent several years searching and collecting essential data in order to complete the needed data and spent other several years analyzing those data by a detailed method of case study in order to research the countries’ industry. Porter’s research is great and useful, but requiring much time and work. Planning process is short, so this kind of study is not suitable for the national land development strategies. Facing the open changeable order, we need a measurement method of quantities to update the data and to analyze data quickly. There are two main contributions of the study. First, we try to tell others that the world is changing and old planning method will not satisfy the new conditions. Second, we use one kind of spatial information technology software called ArcView designing two different models in order to analyze the interaction in space and trade structure between countries. There are four findings about the competition of the development between the countries in the East-Asia region. (1) The properties of the East-Asia countries’ space network are different. Southeast-Asia countries like Malaysia are better than Northeast-Asia countries like Taiwan in the space correlation. (2) About the change of trade structure in East-Asia region, we find the difference from the flying-geese model by trade dependence index. (3) The markets on which Taiwan rely are different from before. China is the most important market Taiwan are depending on now. (4) The regional integration in East-Asia region is hardly possible because of the variety of countries’ space correlation and the repetition of countries’ main trade structure.
