Distractions in a disruption: The soothing effect of the heritage bus ride during London Tube strikes
中断中的分心体验:伦敦地铁罢工期间乘坐传统巴士的舒缓效果
Abstract
This paper explores the cultural significance of replacement bus services during three London Tube strikes in 2018. Strikes cause delays to journeys, and are often anticipated, framed, and reported as nuisances. Empirically informed by participant observation, the paper discusses how social interaction among passengers, triggered by a heritage bus journey, could redefine a disrupted commuter trip as a collective heritage journey, via its unusual materialities and sensations. Passengers notice the different material configuration of heritage buses, leading to the creation of an affective atmosphere, which then spreads among passengers as if by affective contagion. The resulting initiation of a temporary guide–audience relationship in this unexpected space enabled different forms of intercultural dialogue and knowledge exchange, which transformed an ordinary everyday experience into something extraordinary, in which heightened awareness of the bus environment and an increase in social interaction somewhat resembled a guided tour of the city combined with commuter transport. While the economic injustices at the heart of Tube strikes should not be neglected, I propose that the use of heritage buses as replacement transport contributes to the formation of affective atmosphere via the increase in social interactions triggered by their material configuration, and consequently to the sharing of everyday history.

Can residents regain their community relations after resettlement? Insights from Shanghai
居民安置后能否恢复社区关系?来自上海的见解
Abstract
This article investigates whether residents have been able to regain their sense of belonging and neighbourliness after being resettled in urban China and what factors have prevented or enabled them to do so. There is a growing body of work examining the post-resettlement community relations of residents. However, this process of community rebuilding is mostly understood as resident-led and little is known about the role and influence of state actions such as state-led community building and changing resettlement policies. Our study addresses this gap by drawing on the case of Hesha Hangcheng which is one of Shanghai’s major relocation settlements. Our findings, from analysing a household survey and interviews, show that the sense of belonging and neighbourly relations of residents are poorer compared to before they were resettled. The analysis further reveals that residents who are more satisfied with their new housing and neighbourhood tend to have better neighbourly relations and sense of belonging compared to those who are not satisfied and feel they have lost out from the resettlement. Additionally, the state’s efforts in rebuilding communities by providing more community organisations and activities have given residents a platform to encounter each other and help facilitate neighbourliness and a sense of belonging. Theoretically, our study contributes by revealing the interplay between residents and state-led community rebuilding efforts and how they have affected post-resettlement community relations.
摘要
本文调查了中国城市居民在重新安置后是否能够重新获得归属感和邻里感,以及影响他们获得归属感和邻里感的因素有哪些。针对居民重新安置后的社区关系的研究越来越多。然而,这一社区重建过程大多被理解为以居民为主导的,对于国家行动的作用和影响知之甚少,例如国家主导的社区建设和不断变化的重新安置政策。我们的研究以鹤沙航城—上海的一个主要易地搬迁安置点,为案例来解决这一认识差距。通过分析家庭调查和访谈,我们发现,与搬迁前相比,居民的归属感和邻里关系更差。进一步分析表明,与那些不满意新居住地,感觉因为移居而有所损失的居民相比,对新住房和新居住区更满意的居民往往具有更好的邻里关系和归属感。此外,国家通过提供更多的社区组织和活动来重建社区,为居民提供了一个相互接触的平台,有助于促进邻里关系,并提升归属感。理论上,我们的研究有助于揭示居民和国家主导的社区重建工作之间的相互作用,以及它们是如何影响移居后的社区关系的。

Heat, cold and climatic determinism in China’s urban epidemics
中国城市流行病中的热、冷和气候决定论
Abstract
‘Thermal governance’ has been discussed elsewhere as the regulation of temperature through infrastructure, technology and social and political organisation. We extend it here to include a subtle and heretofore under-recognised element of public health: the governance of recent urban epidemics by the Chinese state. The SARS epidemic of 2002–2003 in Guangzhou and more markedly the COVID-19 epidemic in Wuhan triggered massive emergency responses by public health authorities which differed from previous strategies in more fully activating the state health sector known in China as Chinese Medicine (zhongyi) and outside China as Traditional Chinese Medicine. With this enlistment comes a body of theory and practice which makes meteorology central to diagnostic and prescriptive processes, and reinforces as part of state discourse the long-standing Chinese cultural understanding of ‘heat’ as an internal micro-climatic element transcending temperature.

To move forward, we must look back: White supremacy at the base of urban studies
向前迈进,我们必须回顾:城市研究中的白人性基础
AbstractThe concretisation of the Chicago School solidified and inscribed in the city their obsession with the ‘Negro Problem’, race, race relations and (im)migration. Their fixation not only framed modern sociology with an emphasis on the ‘Other’ but cemented a taken-for-granted undergirding of Whiteness at its base. As a discipline, until we can name, point out, understand and highlight that form of violence, urban sociology will be deficient in understanding the city, particularly, but not limited to the US. As an alternative, I offer Du Boisian sociology, critical race theory, and global critical race and racism to aid in moving away from an unstated Whiteness. This article shows how Whiteness is at the base of the urban question and its consequences via the trajectory of the first sociologists of colour trained at the Chicago School, the work on the ghetto, underclass and the effects of such work.

The relationships between neighbourhood vacancy, probable PTSD, and health-related quality of life in flood-disaster-impacted communities
受洪灾影响的社区的邻里空置率、可能的 PTSD 和与健康相关的生活质量之间的关系
Abstract
Excessive amounts of neighbourhood vacant land and abandoned structures can significantly lower community and outsider perceptions, and ultimately impact the mental health conditions of inhabitants. While depopulation, economic conditions and land use dynamics can all play a role in the amount of neighbourhood-scaled vacancies and structural abandonment, natural disaster events such as flooding can also exacerbate the ratio of vacant to non-vacant properties in cities and neighbourhoods through resultant building damage and resident relocations. Examinations on post-disaster mental health are limited, and even less is known about the extent of vacant and abandoned properties on mental health, especially within the disaster recovery context. Using survey responses (n=257) from Houston, TX, USA, from Hurricane Harvey stricken neighbourhoods, this study quantitatively examines how vacancy and abandonment are associated with mental health in disaster-effected communities. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) was measured using the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 and health-related quality of life was measured using the Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) scale. Vacancy rates and perceived vacancy were used to predict PTSD and HRQOL in generalised mixed linear models while adjusting for covariates. Findings indicate significant relationships between higher neighbourhood vacancy and elevated risks of PTSD and impaired HRQOL. Further, while the average rate of abandonment in Houston stayed relatively flat, it increased considerably in hurricane impacted communities until two years after Harvey. The outcomes of this study suggest a link between hazard mitigation-recovery and urban regeneration planning to prevent neighbourhood deterioration and improve mental health outcomes after disaster events.
过多的街区空地和废弃建筑会显著降低社区和外界对街区的评价,并最终影响居民的心理健康状况。虽然人口减少、经济状况和土地利用动态都可能对街区层面的空置和结构性废弃的数量产生影响,但洪水等自然灾害事件也可能(通过建筑物损坏和居民搬迁)提高城市和街区中空置与非空置物业的比例。针对灾后心理健康的研究不多,而我们对空置和废弃物业对心理健康的影响程度(尤其是在灾后恢复的背景下)则更是知之甚少。本研究使用来自美国德克萨斯州休斯顿飓风哈维受灾社区的调查回复 (n=257),定量研究了受灾社区的物业空置和废弃与心理健康之间的关系。我们使用《精神疾病诊断与统计手册第五版》(DSM-5) 中的创伤后应激障碍 (PTSD) 检查表测量 PTSD,使用健康相关生活质量 (HRQOL) 量表测量健康相关生活质量。我们在广义混合线性模型中使用空置率和感知空置率预测 PTSD 和 HRQOL,同时针对协变量进行调整。研究结果表明,较高的社区空置率与 PTSD 风险升高和 HRQOL 受损之间存在显著关系。此外,虽然休斯顿的平均废弃率保持相对平稳,但在受哈维影响的社区,哈维发生后的两年内废弃率显著上升。这项研究的结果表明,减灾恢复与城市更新规划之间存在关联,此等规划旨在防止街区衰落并改善人们在灾难事件后的心理健康。
