With the fastened world's economic globalization, the world's economic development has entered into the international production period guiding with the international corporations, whose central feature is the increasing market competition. Therefore, both the developed and developing countries realize the great effect of industrial cluster on economic development. Industrial cluster has become an important power between regions or countries'competition in the world.Due to its fast development in the wolrd, industrial cluster has gradually aroused the attention from the academic field, and become a hot researching spot in economic geography, management, economics, sociology, etc.. It is unlikely for both theoretic study and practical study to conclude reasonable explanations from neoclassical economic theory, classical regional economic theory, traditional micro-economic theory and industrial organizing theory. With its unique industrial organizing form and its expression of embededness, both its development and its relationship with regions are characterized by open Complex Adaptive System. Industrial cluster does not simply mean emphasizing certain factor's congenital superioty in a region, but stresses techonological improvement and invonation, together with labors power's dynamic role. Thus, as for China, with its vast land, great differences between regional factors and extremely uneven economic development, industrial cluster has a higher theoretical value and realistic significance.Based on the comprehensive review of industrial cluster theory and methodology home and abroad, as well as the current related library collection, proceeding from complex larege system, using researching methods of related theories and cross subjects, this thesis studies the relations between industrial cluster and regional economic space, explores the general operating mechanism of coupling system of industrial cluster—regional economy space. On this basis the thesis also analyzes the coupling system of industrial cluster—regional economy space in the northeastern region in China.The thesis consists of eight parts, Introduction, six chapters and Conclusion.Introduction first expounds the researching background, significance, content, method etc. of the thesis, which is the general summary of the whole thesis, and then describes the present theory of industrial cluster and regional economic space, which is well set for the further research of the thesis.Through the analysis of various concepts concerning present industrial cluster and regional economic space, from the view of systemic scientific research, Chapter One re-defines the concepts of industrial cluster and regional economic space, examines the features of industrial cluster as well as the meaning of regional economic space, and specifically studies the basic contents of the present industrial cluster and regional economic space, based on practice and theory. Chapter Two sets up a model of industrial cluster—regional economic space coupling degree and coupling relation degree, with complex perspective and the combination of coordination theory and coupling theory. Through applying the systematic scientific view and coordinating idea and theory to the analysis of the relation between industrial cluster and regional economic space, Chapter Two comes to a conclusion, that is, there is a coupling relation between the two, which also fully justifies the embededness of industrial cluster.Chapter Three, according to the industiral cluster—regional economic space coupling model, specifically analyzes the coupling relation between the industrial cluster's agglomeration and the agglomerate power of regional economic space, the coupling relation between the growth of industrial cluster and the development of regional economic space, the coupling relation between the techonological innovation system of industrial cluster and the innovative system of regional economic space, the innate coupling relation between division network of industrial cluster and the regional economic net systemBased on the former research, with the dissipative structure theory and mutation theory, combining the analyzing methods of economics, Chapter Four deeply explores the operating mechanism of the coupling relation in the coupling system of industrial cluster—regional economy space, and maintains that the industrial cluster—regional economy space coupling system will cause the system's mutation because of the slight disturbance of certain influencing factor, which makes the industrial cluster—regional economy space coupling system in a high coupling state.In Chapter Five, as a new regional economic developing system, the industrial cluster—regional economy space coupling system propels the shift from regional comparative advantage to competitive advantage, brings about the harmonious development between the industrialization and environment, forsters the mutual improvement of industrialization and urbanization.According to the thesis'researching conclusion, combined with the current situation of industrial cluster and regional economic space in the northeastern region in China, Chapter Six studies the industrial cluster—regional economy space coupling system in the northeastern region, and holds that the northeastern region, as the spacial carrier of industrial cluster, is an excellent economic space which propels the industrial cluster's sustainable growth and development, as well as the key to propeling northeastern region industrial cluster's development.Conclusion makes a thorough review of the thesis, summerizes the thesis'creation and the contribution, and puts forward the shortcomings together with the points that need further research.
