Logistics activities have developed rapidly in Europe, because of the evolution of economic structures and of the integration of the European territory. Based on this statement, this article examines the geography of logistics across the Northwest Europe and their territorial impacts. The analysis is based on an empirical approach. The geographic analysis is based on the study of a sample of logistics facilities within Northwest Europe. The spatial development issue is treated by decryption of European policies. The results illustrate the importance of pre-existing socio-economic structures for understanding the geography of the logistics activities. Furthermore, they demonstrate the impact of the changes in the territorial development policy at all decisional level in Europe on how the logistics development issue is handled.... view less

In Europa haben sich infolge der Heranbildung wirtschaftlicher Strukturen und aufgrund des Zusammenwachsens des europäischen Raumes schnell logistische Aktivitäten entwickelt. Ausgehend von dieser Aussage untersucht der Artikel geografische Logistik-Aspekte im Nordwesten Europas und deren territoriale Auswirkungen. Die Arbeit basiert auf einem empirischen Ansatz. Grundlage der geografischen Analyse ist die Untersuchung einiger beispielhafter Logistikstandorte in Nordwesteuropa. Der Aspekt der Raumentwicklung wird im Rahmen einer Aufschlüsselung europäischer Richtlinien behandelt. Die Ergebnisse illustrieren die Wichtigkeit bereits vorhandener sozioökonomischer Strukturen, die notwendig sind, um die geografischen Aspekte von Logistikaktivitäten verstehen zu können. Außerdem veranschaulichen sie die Auswirkungen von Änderungen in der Raumentwicklungspolitik auf allen europäischen Entscheidungsebenen im Hinblick auf die Frage, wie die Logistikentwicklung behandelt wird.... view less
