邻里依恋是影响政治参与和公民参与的重要因素，而政治参与和公民参与又有助于增强邻里稳定。本文将在中国城市的背景下探讨这一论点。与普遍看法相反，农村流动人口虽然对居住地没有认同感，也不积极参与社群活动，但对留在这些地方的意愿表达得比较强烈。与此相反，失业或退休的城市居民积极参与社群活动，但如果可能的话，宁愿离开。本文认为，邻里依恋与邻里稳定之间的关系并不简单，在这种背景下，它在很大程度上取决于排斥流动人口参与的制度设计，使他们成为“经济寄居者”。
Neighborhood attachment is an important factor that determines political and civic participation, which further help to enhance neighborhood stability. This article explores this argument in the context of Chinese cities. Contrary to common perception, although rural migrants do not identify themselves with the places where they live and do not actively participate in community activities, they express a relatively strong willingness to stay in these places. In contrast, the unemployed or retired urban residents actively participate in community activities but prefer to leave if possible. This article argues that the relation between neighborhood attachment and neighborhood stability is not straightforward, and in this context it is largely determined by the institutional design that excludes migrants’ involvement, turning them into “economic sojourners.”
