Research on the Evolution Mechanism of Cross-border E-commerce Ecosystem Based on Self-organization Theory

Abstract

Cross-border e-commerce ecosystem is a complex, open and far from balanced business ecosystem. Due to the nonlinear interaction among the subsystems within the cross-border e-commerce ecosystem and the complex international environment of "Internet + foreign trade", it is difficult to study its overall development with traditional linear thinking and mathematical methods. System theory provides a theoretical basis for studying the development law of cross-border e-commerce ecosystem more scientifically. Based on the analysis of the evolution of cross-border e-commerce ecosystem and from the perspective of self-organization theory, this paper makes an in-depth study of the internal mechanism and driving force of the evolution of cross-border e-commerce ecosystem. It is believed that the evolution of cross-border e-commerce ecosystem is under the influence of certain environment, and the complex system automatically changes from disorder to order and from low order to high order through "self-organization" mechanism. The subsystems within the system cooperate through competition, and competition and collaboration jointly determine the development and evolution of the cross-border e-commerce ecosystem. Core enterprises and government departments of cross-border e-commerce ecosystem should jointly control the self-organization of cross-border e-commerce ecosystem, lead the system to an orderly structure, and ensure the healthy, sustainable and stable development of the whole ecosystem.
