multidimensional and interconnected response to the ‘death of the high street’?
英国城市中心的体验经济——对“商业街消亡”的多维和相互关联的回应?Allison Orr(英国格拉斯哥大学)等五位作者Abstract: Since the 1990s
the UK’s city centre high streets have been losing market share to out-of-town
shopping and e-retailing. The shocks of the Global Financial Crisis and
COVID-19 have hastened this and precipitated widespread store closures. The
experience economy is increasingly promoted as a means to avert the ‘death of
the high street’, and this prompts our study of its evolution. An exploration
of the literature reveals the experience economy to be an interconnected
phenomenon focused on the creation of a memorable event that elicits a sensory
response via multi-dimensional innovation and design. Using this to guide our
empirical work, we undertake a comparative mixed method longitudinal case study
of five UK city centres. We initially chart the changing manifestations of
experience uses before analysing supporting interviews and observations that
reveal three interconnected layers of the experience economy: in-store
commercial experiences; leisure and entertainment-orientated adaptations to
shopping centres and department stores; and the wider regeneration of the
public realm. Implications for city centre management are discussed.摘要:自1990年代以来,英国市中心的商业街的市场份额一直被城外购物和电子零售所蚕食。全球金融危机和新冠疫情的冲击加速了这一过程,并导致商店大量关闭。人们越来越多地推广体验经济,将其作为避免“商业街消亡”的一种手段,这促使我们对其演变进行研究。通过对文献的研究,我们发现体验经济是一种与其他方面相互关联的现象,它专注于创造令人难忘的事件,通过多维创新和设计引发感官反应。以此为指导,我们开展了实证研究。我们针对五个英国城市中心,用比较混合方法进行了纵向案例研究。在分析揭示体验经济三个相互关联的层次的支持性访谈和观察之前,我们首先绘制了体验的用途不断变化的表现形式:店内商业体验;以休闲娱乐为导向的购物中心和百货商店改造;以及公共领域更广泛的复兴。我们还讨论了体验经济对城市中心管理的影响。Keywords: city

Abstract: For
spatial practices such as architecture, urban design and planning, degrowth
remains an abstract concept, as there is no clear alignment of its principles
into spatial strategies. To bridge this gap, this paper examines how degrowth
can be operationalised into sustainable spatial practices. Through a review of
more than 200 sustainable spatial projects across the world operating at the
building, neighbourhood and citywide scales, the paper shows that while the
majority of sustainable interventions representative of dominant architecture
and urban design culture do not align to degrowth principles, a significant
number of examples using sustainability strategies such as convivial
technologies, building retrofitting, urban renaturation and revitalisation,
eco-urbanisation and spatial infrastructure upgrading are in fact aligned to
degrowth principles. We suggest that these examples form a potential
stepping-stone to enable an urban design and building culture rooted in a
degrowth agenda, however further research and conceptualisation are needed to
enable this to happen.摘要:对于建筑、城市设计和规划等空间实践来说,“反增长至上”(degrowth)仍然是一个抽象概念,因为其原则与空间策略没有明确的结合。为了弥合这一差距,本文研究了如何将“反增长至上”有效操作,使之成为可持续的空间实践。通过考察全球200多个在建筑、社区和城市范围内运营的可持续空间项目,本文表明,虽然大多数代表主流建筑和城市设计文化的可持续干预措施不符合反增长至上的原则,但相当多的使用可持续性战略的例子,如共生技术、建筑改造、城市复兴和振兴、生态城市化和空间基础设施升级,实际上都符合反增长至上原则。我们认为,这些例子构成了一个可能会使城市设计和建筑文化植根于反增长至上议程的中间步骤,但是还需要进一步的研究和概念化来实现这一点。Keywords: architecture,

Scaling-up degrowth: Re-imagining institutional
responses to climate change
William Otchere-Darko(英国纽卡斯尔大学)首次出版时间:2023/2/1|研究论文
Abstract: Focusing
on the United Nations’ Agenda 2030 and the New Urban Agenda, this commentary
suggests that by engaging with degrowth, these mainstream policies can
potentially provide alternative ecological values as climate responses. In
turn, degrowth can also benefit from engaging with the multiple scales and
sectors of these institutions for climate and planning practice. However, such
multi-scalar engagements demand a repoliticisation of institutional and
professional routines, processes and procedures.摘要:着眼于《联合国2030年议程》和《新城市议程》,本论文认为通过与“反增长至上”(degrowth)相结合,这些主流政策可能会提供另外的生态价值,作为其对气候变化的响应。反过来,与不同部门的制度程度不一的结合,也可以使反增长至上从中受益,有利于气候和规划实践。然而,这种程度不一的结合需要将制度和专业惯例、流程以及程序重新政治化。Keywords: Buen

Progressive cities: Urban–rural polarisation of
social values and economic development around the world进步的城市——世界各地社会价值观和经济发展的城乡两极分化Javier

Abstract: In
contrast to the conservative values of rural populations, cities are often seen
as bulwarks of more tolerant, liberal and progressive values. This urban–rural
divide in values has become one of the major fault lines in Western
democracies, underpinning major political events of the last decade, not least
the election of Donald Trump. Yet, beyond a small number of countries, there is
little evidence that cities really are more liberal than rural areas.
Evolutionary modernisation theory suggests that socio-economic development may
lead to the spread of progressive, self-expression values but provides little
guidance on the role of cities in this process. Has an urban–rural split in
values developed across the world? And does this gap depend on the economic
development of a country? We answer these questions using a large
cross-sectional dataset covering 66 countries. Despite the inherent challenges
in identifying and operationalising a globally-consistent definition of what is
‘urban’, we show that there are marked and significant urban–rural differences
in progressive values, defined as tolerant attitudes to immigration, gender
rights and family life. These differences exist even when controlling for
observable compositional effects, suggesting that cities do play a role in the
spread of progressive values. Yet, these results only apply at higher levels of
economic development suggesting that, for cities to leave behind rural areas in
terms of liberal values, the satisfying of certain material needs is a
prerequisite.摘要:与农村人口保守的价值观不同,城市通常被视为更宽容、更自由化、更进步主义的价值观的堡垒。这种价值观的城乡分化已成为西方民主国家的主要裂纹线之一,构成了过去十年中所发生的重大政治事件的基础,尤其是唐纳德·川普的当选。然而,除了少数国家之外,几乎没有证据表明城市真的比农村地区更自由化。进化现代化理论表明,社会经济发展可能导致进步主义的、自我表达的价值观的传播,但对城市在这一过程中可起的作用提供的指导很少。世界范围内是否真的出现了城乡价值观的分化?这种分化是否由一个国家的经济发展水平决定?我们利用一个大型的横截面数据集来回答这些问题,数据涉及66个国家/地区。尽管存在固有挑战,很难在全球范围内对“城市”确定和实施一致的定义,但我们的研究表明,城乡在进步主义价值观方面存在显著的差异。进步主义的价值观被定义为对移民、性别权利和家庭生活所持有的宽容的态度。即使剔除可观察到的构成效应,这些差异也存在,这表明城市确实在进步主义价值观的传播中发挥了作用。然而,这些结果仅适用于较高的经济发展水平,这表明在满足某些物质需求的先决条件下,城市在自由主义价值观方面才会超越农村地区。Keywords: cities,
