旅游业和酒店业对城市夜晚和城市经济的重要性已经得到了充分的证明。然而,商业化的夜间休闲作为一种工作时间空间的探索仍然相对不足。对酒吧、酒店、餐厅和俱乐部作为工作场所以及休闲目的地的更深入了解,有助于将城市夜晚的潜力概念化,使其更加多样化和包容性。本文探讨了需要在夜间通勤的旅游和酒店工作人员所面临的挑战。通过对保加利亚索非亚和比利时布鲁塞尔的混合方法研究,本文探讨了夜间通勤所遇到的障碍和调动的资源。讨论的维度包括不断调整通勤的需要;夜间通勤的经济和非经济成本;晚上骑自行车;以及大学和雇主关系对夜间通勤谈判的影响。本文表明,虽然旅游业和酒店业工作者动员了一系列经济、组织、情感和物质资源,以使夜间通勤成为可能,但城市当局和交通规划者仍有很多工作要做,以确保兼顾工作和休闲旅行的包容性夜间流动。
ABSTRACT The importance of the tourism and hospitality sectors to the urban night and the economies of cities has been well-documented. However, commercialised night-time leisure as a timespace of work remains relatively underexplored. A greater understanding of bars, hotels, restaurants and clubs as workplaces as well as leisure destinations can contribute to conceptualising the potential of urban nights to be more diverse and inclusive. This paper examines the challenges faced by tourism and hospitality workers who need to commute at night. Drawing on a mixed-method study of Sofia, Bulgaria, and Brussels, Belgium, the paper explores the barriers encountered and resources mobilised to make the nocturnal commute possible. The dimensions discussed include the need to continuously adjust one’s commute; the economic and non-economic costs of night commuting; cycling at night; and the impact of collegial and employer relations on negotiating the night commute. The paper demonstrates that while tourism and hospitality workers mobilise a range of economic, organisational, affective and physical resources in order to make night commutes possible, much remains to be done by urban authorities and transport planners to ensure inclusive nocturnal mobilities which attend to work as well as leisure journeys.
