Abstract: The urban agglomerations are important growth pole to lead and promote economy development in the middle Yangtze River Basin as well as Central China. By using social network analysis, we conducted a comparative analysis on spatial network structure's dynamic evolution of urban agglomerations in the middle Yangtze River Basin in 1990, 2000 and 2012. The findings of the study are shown as follows: (1) in 1990, Wuhan and Changsha were the two central cities in the middle Yangtze River Basin. The urban agglomerations' network structure has not yet been fully completed, which was a sparse network structure with the most cities falling outside the network. Taken Wuhan and Changsha as the centers respectively, it formed a linear relation structure constructed of the two small star-shaped cities groups. (2) In 2000, urban agglomerations' network structure became more complete. Wuhan metropolitan area and Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan urban agglomeration linked relatively close, and led by Nanchang, Poyang Lake urban agglomeration was merged in them actively. (3) In 2012, Nanchang became the central city. The spatial network structure of urban agglomerations in the middle Yangtze River has been changed obvious with Wuhan, Changsha, Nanchang as three urban centers. The network's heterogeneity of urban agglomerations reduced. The network was well-distributed and contact efficiency improved overall. The connection between cities became much tighter, more direct and mature. (4) The key factor to achieve regional development in the middle Yangtze River Basin is developing polycentric network structure and taking the combination development of urban agglomerations between inter-provincial, which should strengthen the direct communication between the urban agglomerations and construct urban agglomerations network by sharing the aim.

Key words: urban agglomerations in the middle Yangtze River, economic competitiveness, spatial links, network structure, dynamic evolution
