In the last decade, the peri-urbanization literature has attracted a lot of attention and many scholars have tried to examine these areas from different dimensions, leading to a comprehensive understanding of peri-urban areas. However, a review of domains, approaches, methods and indicators associated with peri-urbanization has received less attention. To this end, the current paper seeks to review them to fill out the gap in the field of researches related to peri-urban areas. The results reveal two thematic domains of peri-urban changes and peri-urban guidance. The methodological approaches were divided into three objective, subjective and pragmatic. Methods were analyzed under the subheadings of quantitative, qualitative and mixed and indicators were categorized in the form of procedural and substantive indicators. These categories form the methodological framework of peri-urbanization literature, leading to an increase in scientific awareness, understanding, supporting and validating of results.

近十年来，城市周边地区的文献引起了广泛关注，许多学者试图从不同维度对这些地区进行考察，从而对城市周边地区进行全面的了解。然而，对与周边城市化相关的领域、方法、方法和指标的审查较少受到关注。为此，本文试图对其进行回顾，以填补与城市周边地区相关的研究领域的空白。结果揭示了城郊变化和城郊指导这两个主题领域。方法论的方法分为客观的、主观的和务实的三种。方法分定量、定性、混合等小标题进行分析，指标分为程序性指标和实质性指标。
