Abstract:Using Standard Deviation,Coefficient of Variation,Primacy Ration,Herfindal-heasman index,Gini Coefficient,and Rank-size Distribution theory model combined with Eviews 7.0 comprehensively,this paper analyzes the difference of inbound tourism size and construction of rank-size distribution of 11 cities in Jiangxi Province based on the data of inbound tourist reception and inbound tourism revenue from 1999 to 2012.Results reveal that the absolute disparity among inbound tourism of cities in Jiangxi Province is expanding,but the relative disparity is narrowing though the city’s first degree is gradually decreasing with alternative and fluctuating development,and the competition among cities is more intense.Inbound tourism of Jiangxi is in line with the distribution of rank-size,and it has already transformed from the first distribution to the concentration distribution and shows the trend of scattered equilibrium distribution.Finally,three different trends of inbound tourism development in Jiangxi are presented,namely stable rising,circuitous and recession,accordingly the reference measurements are put forward.
