2008年经济危机和紧缩政策后，西班牙城市的社会不平等现象日益严重。然而，严酷的社会条件也导致了“公民行为”。在马绍尔和托克维尔对公民和公民社会的研究背景下，本文分析了2015年5月巴塞罗那市政选举中出现的政治融合，其中包括公民组织和倡导团体。Barcelona en Comú宣称将彻底改变政策取向，重新制定公民身份议程。我们认为这是一个需要历史背景化的城市公民的例子。我们看到当前的地方治理模式和议程与20世纪80年代建立的民主地方治理模式之间的连续性和不连续性，当时民间社会提供了大量投入。然而，在一个资源控制在其他地方的全球化城市中实施城市公民议程是一项挑战。
Abstract Spanish cities have suffered increasing social inequality after the 2008 economic crisis and austerity policies. However, harshening social conditions have also led to ‘acts of citizenship’. Against the background of Marshallian and Tocquevillean takes on citizenship and civil society this paper analyses the emergence of the political confluence that gained office in the municipal elections of May 2015 in Barcelona incorporating citizens’ organisations and advocacy groups. Barcelona en Comú claims a radical change in policy orientation with a renewed citizenship agenda. We argue that this is an example of urban citizenship that requires historical contextualisation. We see continuities and discontinuities between the current local governance model and agenda and the democratic local governance model established during the 1980s when civil society provided significant input. However, it is a challenge to implement an urban citizenship agenda in a globalised city with resources controlled elsewhere.
