在这篇文章中，我们探讨了弹性政策和实践的扩展，不是作为对基础设施的影响，而是通过基础设施制定的。基于福柯对政府权力的拓扑分析，特别是他对政府权力同时代向心流和离心流的阐述，我们认为，理解韧性政策和实践的尺度包括承认其基础结构构成。我们通过对英国复原力政策和实践的实证分析来检验这种基础设施规模，正如那些在参与规划和应对天文事件的多个组织中工作的人所讲述的那样。这揭示了在韧性政策及其批评中表达的新自由主义去中心化重复是如何被阻碍、过滤和加速的交织循环机制所维持和取代的。这些基础设施流动加在一起，构成了“部分连贯”的规模，这些规模不仅集中了政府权力，而且构成了政府中心。我们对基础设施规模的分析表明，弹性政策和实践远没有其他人所说的那么分散或本地化，向心力和离心力的权力流动都是由基础设施循环机制的组合产生的，这些机制可以根据不同的事件调整政治机构的规模。
In this paper we explore the scaling of resilience policy and practice not as an effect upon infrastructure but as enacted through infrastructure. Drawing on Foucault's topological analyses of governmental power, especially his elaboration of its coeval centripetal and centrifugal flows, we argue that understanding the scaling of resilience policy and practice involves acknowledging its infrastructural composition. We examine this infrastructural scaling through an empirical analysis of UK resilience policy and practice, as recounted by those working across multiple organizations involved in planning for, and coping with, aleatory events. This reveals how the neoliberal decentralizing refrain, expressed in resilience policy and its critique, is both sustained and displaced by interwoven circulatory mechanisms of obstruction, filtration, and acceleration. Together these infrastructural flows amount to ‘fractionally coherent’ scalings that not only centralize governmental power but are constitutive of governmental centres. Our analyses of infrastructural scaling suggest that resiliency policy and practice is far less decentralized, or localized, than others have suggested, with both centripetal and centrifugal flows of power resulting from a composite of infrastructural circulatory mechanisms that can variously scale political agency in relation to aleatory events.
