A Policy Model for Logistics Based on Complex System Theory

Nowadays the logistics system has evolved into an open complex giant system along with the progress in global economics and technology and the era of network, so that more and more factors have to be considered in the constitution of logistics policy. In order to reach overall synthesis, dynamic evolution and self-adaptive movement of logistics system, we put forward a new policy model based on the complex system theory including synthesization and integration system space flight (Qian Xuesen), adaptive systems theory(Santa Fe), thinking of complicated method (Edgar Morin), several complex thoughts of HerbertldrAldrSimon, and pansystems theory (Wu xuemou). The concrete contents of the study include the description of the policy model for logistics, the submodels consisting of external synthesis model, internal dynamic equilibrium model, policy optimization model, and implement model. Consequently, this new policy model provides theoretical reference for the formulation of logistics policy in a country or region.
