围绕城市生态正在形成一种全球性的讨论,这种讨论可能会简化人们对城市和自然的理解。它的模式包括从技术驱动的“智慧城市”到生态驱动的“亲生物”、“弹性”或“生态城市”;试图建立“城市科学”。虽然我们认识到全球对城市可持续性的响应是重要的,但我们质疑似乎意图建立统一框架的话语,通过该框架来思考和行动所有城市的城市生态。如果说城市研究、批判性环境研究和环境史的丰富传统表明了什么的话,那就是地点和时间对事情的发展至关重要。这本书借鉴了人文和社会科学关于城市和自然被概念化的方式的广泛思想和研究传统,并试图为城市性质的研究提供多种视角。走向比较城市环境主义:在新兴的“城市世界”中定位城市自然
There is a global discourse forming around urban ecology that risks simplifying how cities and nature are understood together. Its models range from techdriven “smart cities” to ecologydriven “biophilic,” “resilient,” or “ecocities”; to attempts at formulating “a science of cities.” While we recognize that a global response to urban sustainability is important, we question discourses that seem intent on creating unifying frameworks through which to think about and act on urban ecology in all cities. If there is anything that the rich traditions of urban studies, critical environmental studies, and environmental history have shown, it is that place and time matter for how things play out. This book draws upon a wide tradition of thought and research from the humanities and the social sciences concerning ways that cities and nature have been conceptualized together and seeks to offer multiple perspectives for the study of urban natures. 1 Toward Comparative Urban Environmentalism: Situating Urban Natures in an Emerging “World of Cities”
