Segregation, mobility and encounters in Jerusalem: The role of public transport infrastructure in connecting the ‘divided city’
耶路撒冷的隔离、流动性与共存：公共交通基础设施在连接“分裂城市”中的作用
Abstract
This paper assesses ways in which urban segregation is shaped and transformed by Jerusalem’s public transport network, enhancing mobility and potential group encounters. We suggest that segregation should be understood as an issue of mobility and co-presence in public space, rather than the static residential-based segregation that continues to be a central focus of debate in urban studies. We explore public transport infrastructures, considering how their implementation reflects the variety of ways that transport can have impact: segmenting populations, linking populations and/or creating spaces for interaction or conflict between the city’s Jewish Israeli and Arab Palestinian populations. Space syntax network analysis suggests that in the case of Jerusalem, access to public transport is multi-dimensional: as well as providing access to resources, it shapes opportunities for spatial mobility that may either overcome or reinforce area-based housing segregation. We discuss these opportunities in the light of Jerusalem’s on-going ethno-national division in an increasingly fractured urban reality.

African urbanisation at the confluence of informality and climate change
非正规性和气候变化交汇的非洲城市化
Abstract
Africa contributes the least to global greenhouse gas emissions, yet it faces climate change’s harshest consequences. Ramifications of climate change pose daunting multi-scalar urban challenges, specifically because urbanisation across most African countries is embedded in, linked to and defined by various notions of informality. However, there is limited theoretical attention to the confluence of African urbanisation, informality and climate change. This article addresses this issue by laying out three fundamental matters of this relationship. First, it analyses urban informality in the context of three domains: the informal economy, informal settlements and the state. Second, it highlights the significance of climate change to theoretical and empirical studies of informality. We propose that climate change poses challenges to the practice of informality and its contemporary theorisation, prompting new questions about how African informality is understood and framed. Finally, it discusses new perspectives on planning for climate change and urban informality that do not frame ‘top-down’ and ‘bottom-up’ approaches as necessarily mutually exclusive. Climate change fundamentally challenges life within informal economies and settlements, and its synthesis within debates on African urbanisation is urgently required. Notably, and in turn, the global discourse on climate change also requires specific attention to the theories and practices of informality.
摘要
在全球，非洲排放的温室气体是最少的，但她却承受着气候变化最严重的后果。气候变化的后果带来了令人生畏的多标度城市挑战，特别是因为大多数非洲国家的城市化都嵌入了各种非正规概念、与之相联系、并由其定义。然而，同时融合非洲城市化、非正规性和气候变化的理论研究十分有限。本文通过阐述这种关系的三个基本问题来探讨这一方面。首先，我们分三个领域分析了城市非正规性：非正规经济、非正规住区和政府。其次，我们强调气候变化对非正规性理论和实证研究而言的重要性。我们认为气候变化对非正规性的实践及其当代理论提出了挑战，引发了关于如何理解和构建非洲非正规性的新问题。最后，我们讨论关于针对气候变化和城市非正规性进行规划的新观点，这些观点并不将“自上而下”和“自下而上”的方法视为必然相互排斥。气候变化从根本上挑战了非正规经济和住区中的人们的生活，迫切需要在关于非洲城市化的辩论中对其进行综合。值得注意的是，反过来，关于气候变化的全球讨论也需要特别关注非正规性的理论和实践。

Towards a multi-scalar reading of informality in Delft, South Africa: Weaving the ‘everyday’ with wider structural tracings
在南非代尔夫特镇对非正规性进行多尺度解读：用更广泛的结构追踪编织“日常”
Abstract
Informality is a critical theme in urban studies. In recent years, ‘the everyday’ has become a focus of studies on informality in African cities. These studies focus on particularity and place. They offer a useful corrective to top-down and universalising readings which exclude the daily experiences and practices of people from analysis. As we show in this article, everyday studies surface valuable insights, highlighting the agency and precarity which operates at the street level. However, a fuller understanding of informality’s (re)production requires drawing together particularist accounts with wider and more structural tracings. These tracings offer insights into the ways in which state and financial processes influence and interface with the everyday. In this article, we use the case of housing in Delft, a township in Cape Town, to demonstrate this approach and argue for a multi-scalar and relational reading of the production of informality.

Public space on the move: Mediating mobility, stillness and encounter on a Cape Town bus
移动中的公共空间：在开普敦巴士上调整流动性、静止性和相遇
Abstract
As a public space, the environment of public transportation services is maintained by an ordered set of rules and conditions. Such rules and conditions are prescribed by law as they are in generally-accepted norms of social behaviour within public space. Through the examination of the Conditions of Carriage that govern bus transportation in Cape Town, South Africa, using Golden Arrow Bus Services, this paper seeks to highlight the myriad ways that urban public space on the move is mediated, negotiated and controlled through rules of conduct that differentiate mobile public space from its counterpart in the environment outside the bus. Understood as a mundane part of the social life of the city and its inhabitants, mobility in the form of public transportation is constituted by micro-communities whose publics are in a constant state of flux and negotiation. Using analysis of the Conditions of Carriage and an ethnographic case study of bus passengering, this paper demonstrates how the Conditions mediate the situated and lived assemblage of actors in mobile public space that is a liminal zone between inclusion and exclusion.
作为公共空间，公共交通服务的环境是由一套有序的规则和条件维护的。这些规则和条件由法律规定，因为它们是公共空间内普遍接受的社会行为规范。通过对适用于南非开普敦金箭巴士服务公司 (Golden Arrow Bus Services) 的运输条件的研究，本文旨在强调城市流动公共空间如何以多种方式、通过行为规则得到调整、协商和控制，这些行为规则将流动公共空间与公共汽车外部环境区分开来。作为城市及其居民社会生活的日常组成部分，公共交通形式的流动性构成微型社区，其公众处于不断变化和协商的状态。通过对运输条件的分析和公共汽车乘客的人类学案例研究，本文展示了这些运输条件如何调整移动公共空间中各行为者在这一特殊情境中的、生活化的组合，这种公共空间是包容和排斥之间的阈限区域。

Do cities enable caring-with men? An ordinary politics of urban care
城市是否可以促进男性的整体关怀？城市关怀的普通政治
Abstract
This critical commentary unpacks the promise of care-full and just cities, and how men are understood as subjects of urban care. Overall, my discussion offers a generative space that forwards the situated practices of caring-with men as ordinary politics in order to fully realise the promise of a city for everyone. The main body is divided into three sections. The first section revisits the concept of care-full cities as an alternative vision of the city grounded in feminist ethics of care and justice. Here I aim to expand the discussion on men as subjects of urban care to consider the diverse performances of masculinities in relation to economic conditions, social meanings, and cultural norms which structure spaces and subjectivities of care giving/-receiving. In the second section, I conceptualise caring-with men as ordinary politics shaping the contested relations and place-making practices in the city. Here I highlight that caring-with involves transversal logics and heterogenous politics that enrich how care as a cultural value and everyday practice can be embodied, reinforced, or even neglected among certain groups of men. The last section provides a synthesis and several key reflections on the (im)possibilities of caring-with men in culturally diverse cities. The situated understandings of care giving/-receiving amongst men in the city inspire crosscurrents and interdisciplinary synthesis across bodies of work in urban studies, feminist care geographies and gender/sexuality studies. In conclusion, caring-with men as ordinary politics is a step towards encouraging situated and comparative inquiries through consolidating a hybrid praxis of global urban masculinities.
这篇批判性评论揭示了关怀 (care-full) 和公正城市的前景，以及男性如何被理解为城市关怀的主体。总体而言，我的讨论提供了一个生成空间，可推进参与整体关怀 (caring-with) 的男性的情境化实践，以充分实现城市对每个人的承诺。正文分为三个部分。第一部分重新审视关怀 (care-full) 城市的概念，作为基于女性主义关怀和公正伦理的城市的替代性愿景。在这里，我致力于扩展关于男性作为城市关怀主体的讨论，以考虑男性气质在经济条件、社会意义和文化规范方面的不同表现，正是这些构成了给与/接受关怀的空间和主体性。在第二部分，我对整体关怀 (caring-with) 男性进行概念化，将其视为塑造城市中的争夺关系和场所营造实践的普通政治。在这里，我强调整体关怀 (caring-with) 涉及横向逻辑和异质政治，丰富了关怀作为一种文化价值和日常实践在某些男性群体中形成、加强甚至被忽视的方式。最后一部分提供了一个综合和几个关键的思考，涉及在多元文化城市中实现整体关怀 (caring-with) 男性的（不）可能性。此外，对城市中男性给与/接受关怀的情境化理解能激发城市研究、女权主义护理地理学和性别/性研究等不同领域研究工作之间的交叉和跨学科综合。我们的结论是，通过整合全球城市男子气概混合实践，作为普通政治的整体关怀 (caring-with) 男性朝着鼓励情境化比较研究的方向迈出了一步。
