本文在深刻理解新型城镇化内涵的基础上,重点构建了由经济、空间、社会和资源环境4个子系统构成的新型城镇化评价指标体系,采用耦合协调度评价模型对新疆新型城镇化协调发展水平进行了测度,并从时空变化特征的角度对新疆15个地州市新型城镇化内部4个子系统的协调发展状态进行了定量分析。结果表明:从时间变化来看,2002年—2015年期间,新疆经济、空间、社会及资源环境城镇化发展指数均呈明显的上升趋势,但受不同时期历史条件及内外因素的影响,驱动新型城镇化发展的主导力量也呈现出明显的阶段性特征;且新型城镇化诸系统的耦合协调度呈上升态势,由2002年的0.0844上升至2015年的0.4701,但耦合协调类型在2015年尚处于轻度失调阶段,距一般协调阶段还有一定距离,与良好协调阶段和优质协调阶段差距较大。从空间分布上来看,2015年新疆经济、空间、社会及资源环境城镇化协调发展水平呈整体发展水平较低、区域分异明显等显著性特征。

On the basis of understanding the connotation of the new-type urbanization, an evaluation system of new-type urbanization was established in the paper, which was composed of four subsystems including economic urbanization, space urbanization, social urbanization and resources and environment urbanization. The coupling coordination degree evaluation model was adopted to measure the new-type urbanization coordinated development level in Xinjiang. Moreover, a quantitative evaluation was conducted on the urbanization level and the four subsystems of coordinated development of 15 regions and prefectures in Xinjiang from the spatial-temporal variation characteristics. The results showed that from the point of time-series, the urbanization development indexes of economy, space, social and resources & environment respectively showed obvious rising trend from the 2002 to 2015, but impact of the historical conditions and internal and external factors in different period made the dominant driving forces of urbanization present a clear stage characteristic. Meanwhile, the coupling coordination degree was on the rise during this period, namely from 0.0844 in 2002 to 0.4701 in 2015. However, the type of coupling coordination was still in the phase of mild disorder until 2015.There was a certain distance away from the general coordination phase, and a big gap from high coordination and extreme coordination. From the spatial distribution of it in 2015, the new urbanization development level and the coordination development level of economy, space, social and resources & environment had significant characteristics with the low level of overall development, obvious regional differentiation and so on.
