2011年在泰国中部发生的历史性洪水揭示了在防洪方面的激烈斗争,由于水本身的不规则性,这一斗争变得特别复杂。两种形式的基础设施之间的相互作用,每一种都塑造了流经湄南河三角洲的水流,是理解这种复杂性的关键。作为一个介于海洋和陆地之间的模糊地带,三角洲环境可以被看作是海洋的延伸,也可以被看作是可开垦的土地。根据这两种观点中的任何一种来建造基础设施,都会相应地重塑景观,从而使景观更像陆地或水生。在湄南河三角洲,陆地基础设施,其中包括道路网络和陆上城市生活,已经覆盖在一个预先存在的水上基础设施,特点是运河运输和洪水适应性建筑。主要是由于国家对促进水运的兴趣,水上基础设施组织了三角洲的景观,直到世纪中期。然而,从那时起,现代灌溉的引入逐渐使三角洲景观更加陆地化。灌溉系统创造的旱地使现代形式的农业、商业和工业成为可能。虽然这种陆地趋势似乎接管了整个三角洲,但陆地基础设施并没有消除水生基础设施。相反,它创造了不同形式的基础设施之间的动态相互作用。2011年的洪水突出了这种相互作用在防洪中的中心地位,并为水生基础设施的作用提供了新的视角。
The historic flooding that occurred in 2011 in central Thailand revealed fierce struggles over flood protection, which were made particularly complex because of the unruly nature of water itself. The interplay between two forms of infrastructure, each of which shape the flows of water coursing through the Chao Phraya Delta, is key to understanding this complexity. As an ambiguous place in between the sea and land, a delta environment can be seen alternatively as an extension of the sea or as reclaimable land. Constructing infrastructures based on either of these views remakes the landscape accordingly—thus making the landscape more terrestrial or more aquatic. In the Chao Phraya Delta, the terrestrial infrastructure, which consists of road networks and land-based urban living, has been overlaid on a pre-existing aquatic infrastructure characterized by canal transport and flood adaptive architecture. Mainly due to state interest in facilitating water transport, the aquatic infrastructure organized the landscape of the delta until the mid-twentieth century. However, since then the introduction of modern irrigation has progressively rendered the delta landscape more terrestrial. Dry land created by the irrigation system made modern forms of agriculture, commerce and industry possible. While this terrestrial trend seemed to take over the entire delta, the terrestrial infrastructure did not eliminate the aquatic one. Instead it created a dynamic interplay between different forms of infrastructure. The 2011 flood foregrounded the centrality of this interplay in flood protection and sheds new light on the role of the aquatic infrastructure.
