Taking 53 ports along the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road as the research object,container throughput data of ports from 2008 to 2019 were selected to measure the port trade re-silience and analyze the characteristics from two dimensions of resistance and resilience.The re-sults show that:①The resilience of ports along the Maritime Silk Road is good,and the resil-ience is much higher than the global average level of ports,and the overall resilience is obvious-ly on the rise.② The overall pattern of port trade resilience along the route presents a northwest southeast direction,with more significant differences in east-west extension compared to north-south direction.In terms of spatial-temporal evolution,the distribution is more dispersed,and spatial differences continue to decrease.③In the three shocks,the resilience values of Chinese ports differ significantly,and the overall development trend is stable and good.According to the research conclusions,policy suggestions are put forward:incorporating resilient development in-to high-quality port development evaluation system,strengthen differentiated cooperation strate-gies with important strategic ports,respond to the industry trend of the world shipping and trade center moving eastward,and Accelerate the forming a new port development pattern in which in-ternal and external circulation promote each other.
