翻译后摘要:在学术和流行的文本中,孟买被调用作为一个标志性的例子,在二十一世纪的城市非正式住区的问题。 虽然这种表述在迁就和边缘化的比喻之间摇摆不定,但它们往往混淆了城市中定居者政治的妥协和历史成功。在本文中,作者使用国际城市化会议作为出发点,探讨孟买定居者的住房做法。他们研究的过程中,新兴形式的包容性已经从概念上脱离了长期的斗争,反对不平等。通过研究孟买的住房政治、社会动员和市政政策之间复杂的相互作用,本文认为,在城市时代的城市中,伴随着“包容”愿望的新的治理制度应该得到更仔细的关注。
Abstract:  In scholarly and popular texts, Mumbai is invoked as an iconic example of the problem of urban informal settlements in the twenty-first century. While such representations oscillate between tropes of accommodation and marginalization, they often obfuscate the compromised and historical successes of settler politics in the city. In this paper, the authors use an international urbanization conference as a starting point for exploring Mumbai settlers’ housing practices. They examine the processes through which emergent forms of inclusion have been conceptually unhinged from longstanding struggles against inequality. By examining the complex interplay of housing politics, social mobilization, and municipal policy in Mumbai, the paper argues for more careful attention to new regimes of governing that accompany aspirations for “inclusion” in the cities of the urban age.
