Rescaling of the land regime in the making of city-regions: A case study of China’s Pearl River Delta
城市区域建设中的土地体制尺度重构：以中国珠江三角洲为例
Abstract
Ubiquitous in fast-urbanising China, land-driven urban growth is increasingly inter-urban in nature – a trend that is underexplored in the literature. Grounded in a conceptual framework concerning the rescaling of the land regime, this study probes the unfolding land development processes of city-regionalism. Key findings of an examination of the Shenzhen–Shanwei Special Cooperation Zone in the Pearl River Delta are as follows: land regime rescaling is an emergent driving force for city-region making in China; the rescaled land regime centres on uneven capacities among the states of cooperating cities and benefit sharing (immediate land-related profit and potential long-term profit); provincial government engagement is fundamental to legitimatising this contested process; the rescaled land regime has been orchestrated by state interests in land development, rather than business interests released by marketisation, spawning a ‘stretching’ state territoriality of the central city. This article furthers the field’s understanding of a ‘world of city-regionalisms’ through a situated account of emerging city-regionalism characterised by land development in the Chinese context.

Prefigurative legality: Transforming municipal jurisdiction
前喻合法性：转变市政管辖权
Abstract
This paper argues that prefigurative legality plays an important role in crafting municipalist strategy. We explore the experience of the City of Sydney in relation to new municipalism, focusing on its trajectory as a ‘boundary case’ that generates incrementally accrued transformative potential under conditions of muted political partisanship. The paper argues that at least in a boundary case such as this, legality can be a key and underappreciated component of transformative strategy, particularly if its prefigurative potential is appreciated. Prefigurative legality as a component of strategy is less about reconfiguring forms of state practice and more a means of institutionalising substantive policies and state practices in ways that extend the connection between community and state. As such, prefigurative legality has a deeply ambivalent relationship with the state and is both more incremental and more inclined to be ‘merely progressive’ than the prefigurative politics of radical municipalism. Nonetheless, we argue that legality still acts as an important and underappreciated pivot between power and resistance, especially where legal pluralism and multi-scalar indeterminacy are salient. The paper makes this argument while tracking the City of Sydney’s engagement with three dimensions of legality – delegated jurisdiction, legal pluralism and multi-scalar indeterminacy – and the ways in which these trajectories intersect with state and national government responses. While the Sydney case may fall just outside the boundaries of ‘classic’ instances, the role of legality in this setting generates valuable insights for the longer-term trajectories of more radical versions of new municipalism.
摘要
本文认为，前喻合法性在制定地方自治策略中起着重要作用。我们探讨了悉尼市与新地方自治主义相关的经验，重点关注其作为“边界案例”的轨迹。在温和的政治党派关系的环境下，它产生了逐步积累的变革潜力。本文认为，至少在这样的边界案例中，合法性可以是变革策略的一个关键且被低估的组成部分，特别是当它的前喻潜力得到认可的时候。作为策略组成部分的前喻合法性重点不是重置政府行为形式，而是一种以扩展社区与政府之间联系的方式将实质性政策和政府行为制度化的手段。因此，前喻合法性与政府有着深刻的矛盾关系，并且比激进地方自治主义的前喻政治更有渐进性，更倾向于“纯粹进步”。尽管如此，我们认为，合法性仍然是权力和抵抗之间重要且未被充分认识的枢纽，尤其是在法律多元化和多尺度不确定性突出的情况下。为提出这一论点，本文跟踪悉尼市如何处理合法性的三个维度（授权管辖权、法律多元化和多尺度不确定性）以及这些轨迹如何与州和联邦政府的反应相交。虽然悉尼的案例可能刚好超出“经典”实例的范围，但合法性在这种情况下的作用为更激进的新地方自治主义的长期轨迹提供了宝贵的见解。

Consuming ‘authenticity’? Reinterpreting the ‘new middle class’ in China through the lens of retailing changes
消费“真实性”？从零售业变革的视角重新解读中国的“新中产阶级”
Abstract
If gentrification is occurring globally, we must understand the uneven intervention of globalisation in the production of a (global) gentrifier class. This paper adopts a comparative perspective to investigate the ‘new middle class’ within China’s urban context. Through the critical examination of subtle retailing changes, it discusses how recent place-making strategies have fabricated the aura of ‘authenticity’ built upon the history of traditional residential neighbourhoods, attracting gentrifiers, whose consumption practices have transformed the retail space of a gentrified historic neighbourhood. Using Nanjing as a case study by employing qualitative research methods, this study shows that the Chinese new middle classes have yearned for modern and elitist lifestyles, with a preference for consuming Western-style goods to manifest their distinctive tastes and social status. This paper’s research findings propose the concept of Xiaozi consumption, a specific term that challenges Western-developed concepts of ‘consuming authenticity’ by highlighting the planetary indigeneity of gentrification in the Global South.

The long shadow of territorial stigma: Upward social mobility and the symbolic baggage of the old neighbourhood
区域污名化的长期阴影：向上的社会流动性和旧街区的象征性包袱
Abstract
In recent years, a burgeoning number of studies have shed light on the lived experience of territorial stigma. However, the vibrant academic discourse on the stigma of place focuses almost exclusively on residents living in marginalised neighbourhoods: it either overlooks or simplifies the lived experience of ‘moving out’ and ‘up’. Building upon 43 biographical interviews with individuals who experienced upward social mobility and were raised in stigmatised neighbourhoods in Germany, this article argues that the experience of exiting from the symbolic bottom of the urban structure is a more complex and conflictual one. In particular, this work sheds light on how former residents learn to relate to the symbolic baggage of having once lived in a notorious neighbourhood. By analysing the three prevailing coping strategies they engage in, the article shifts attention to the prolonged and lasting impact of territorial stigmatisation.
近年来，越来越多的研究揭示了区域污名化的生活体验。然而，关于地方污名的充满活力的学术讨论几乎完全集中于生活在边缘化街区的居民身上：它要么忽视要么简化了“迁出”和“向上迁移”的生活体验。基于对经历过向上社会流动且在被污名化的街区长大的德国个人进行的 43 次传记性采访，本文认为离开具有象征意义的城市底层是一种更为复杂和矛盾的经历。特别是，本文揭示了污名化街区的前居民学会了如何对待这种居住经历的象征性包袱。通过分析他们采取的三种主要的应对策略，本文将注意力转向区域污名化的长期和持久影响。

Creating hospitable urban spaces: A multicultural city for refugees and asylum seekers
创造热情好客的城市空间：难民和寻求庇护者的多元文化城市
Abstract
Australia is one of a handful of countries offering permanent settlement to refugees. It also has some of the harshest border-controlling measures. Drawing on Derrida’s writing on hospitality, and related work on hospitality’s affective and spatial dimensions, we examine the micropolitics of hospitality towards forced migrants in an Australian city (Brisbane). Our interest is in the affordances of affective hospitality to interrupt practices of differential inclusion in the city. The first part of the paper examines practices of embedded activism in health and education encounters, while the second part explores affect’s influence on the protest sensibility in urban movements against mandatory detention. The paper furthers understandings of the embodied and affective dimensions of hospitality in social justice work performed in urban spaces.
澳大利亚是少数为难民提供永久定居点的国家之一。它还有一些最严厉的边境管制措施。借鉴德里达 (Derrida) 关于“接待”的著作，以及款待的情感和空间维度方面的相关研究，我们研究一个澳大利亚城市（布里斯班）对待被迫移民的接待微观政治。我们的兴趣在于友爱接待中断城市中差异包容做法方面的启示。本文的第一部分考察了在健康和教育体验中嵌入行动主义的实践，而第二部分则探讨了情感对反对强制拘留的城市运动中的抗议敏感性的影响。本文推进了对于作为城市空间中的社会正义工作中的接待的具体和情感维度。
