对空间的管制被理解为超越国家,包括分散的、分散的非国家行为体。在南非,对妇女的管制长期以来被认为是国家管制行为、控制犯罪和混乱以及产生国家收入的一种手段。这个后种族隔离时代的国家试图与旧模式保持距离,但却难以应对与饮酒有关的问题。非国家行为体试图干预这一差距。我们研究了不同的行为者如何在开普敦的非正式住区中对饮酒和饮酒空间的监管做出贡献。通过对监管的多元视角,我们确定并讨论了居民、酒吧业主和社区领导人监管酒精流动和酒吧实践的策略。我们发现,在如何监管女性行为方面,不同参与者的想法之间存在一些协同效应;然而,我们也看到,虽然目前的警察条例侧重于没收和逮捕,但定居点内的行为者更倾向于考虑到手头实际情况的较软的条例。通过展示正式和非正式饮酒规则之间的冲突和交集,我们希望激发更多关于多元、分散和日常饮酒规则的研究,以及在南方城市复杂的非正式空间中的研究。
The regulation of space is understood to extend beyond the state to include decentralized, diffuse non-state actors. In South Africa, the regulation of shebeens has long been considered a means for state regulation of behaviour, controlling crime and disorder and generating state income. The post-apartheid state has sought to distance itself from old patterns, but struggles to respond to the problems associated with alcohol consumption. Non-state actors have sought to intervene in this gap. We examine how diverse actors contribute to the regulation of drinking and drinking spaces within informal settlements in Cape Town. Through applying a plural perspective on regulation, we identify and discuss strategies through which residents, shebeen owners and community leaders regulate the flow of alcohol and shebeen practices. We find some synergies between different actors' ideas regarding how shebeen practices should be regulated; however, we also see that while the current police regulation focuses on confiscation and arrest, actors within the settlements prefer softer regulation that takes into account the actual situation at hand. By displaying conflicts and intersections between formal and informal regulations of shebeens, we hope to inspire more research on plural, decentralized, and everyday regulations of alcohol and in the complex spaces of informality in the urban South.
