几十年来，城市高密度化一直被认为是城市空间发展领域中最相关的生态现代化战略。与城市向外扩张相比，高密度化具有重要的环境优势，但也并非没有负面的环境影响。本文批判性地考察了城市密度化政策是如何包含一个假设——隐含的或明确的——即应适应以建筑存量和基础设施的人均消费表示的持续增长。这被认为会导致环境可持续性的减弱。以挪威首都奥斯陆为例，说明了致密化战略的环境成就和局限性。然后根据经济增长和环境可持续性之间的紧张关系的理论文献讨论这些成就和局限性。论文最后呼吁对增长假设如何影响/微妙地塑造城市可持续性政策进行进一步的批判性审查。
ABSTRACT Urban densification has for some decades been considered as the most relevant strategy for ecological modernization within the field of urban spatial development. Compared to outward urban expansion, densification has important environmental merits, but is not without negative environmental impacts. This paper critically examines how urban densification policies contain an assumption – implicit or explicit – that continual growth, expressed in per capita consumption of building stock and infrastructure, should be accommodated. This is argued to lead to a weakening of environmental sustainability. The Norwegian capital Oslo is used as an example, illustrating the environmental achievements and limitations of the densification strategy. These achievements and limitations are then discussed in the light of theoretical literature on tensions between economic growth and environmental sustainability. The paper concludes with a call for further critical scrutiny of how growth assumptions influence/subtly shape urban sustainability policies.
