Abstract:The development of regional economy is often impacted or interfered by various shocks at different spatial scales. As a new way of conceptualizing and analyzing how an economic system react to and recover from shocks or disturbances, regional economic resilience has become a prominent subject of academic research. Based on the analysis of the knowledge network of regional economic resilience by CiteSpace 6.1R4, this paper tease out knowledge from the conceptualization, measurement methods and influencing factors of regional economic resilience. After going through the initial stage of conceptualization, the research hot topics tend to be diversified and complicated. The concept and connotation of regional economic resilience includes three interpretive perspectives: engineering, ecology and evolutionary resilience. Where, the implications of evolutionary resilience are broader. Regional economic resilience not only refers to the resistance to shocks, but also refers to the ability of the economic system to recover and transition to a new development path. The measurement methods of regional economic resilience mainly include case comparison method, econometric model, core variable method and comprehensive index evaluation method, each of which has its own applicable research objects, advantages and disadvantages. This paper also focuses on the impact and mechanism of industrial structure, network connectivity, and institutional arrangements on regional economic resilience. Finally, this paper points out the shortcomings and directions in studies on regional economic resilience.
