规划者和活动家正在寻找方法来促进公平的适应，以对抗气候不公正。这篇文章探讨了这种渐进式的适应转向与过去的渐进式运动相比有何不同。我认为，城市进步政治具有自由主义和激进主义的周期性倾向，气候适应规划的演变反映了这些浪潮。我回顾了最近的10份指导文件，这些文件建议了加强种族公正适应的战略。然后，我评估这些建议如何推进渐进式改革的三大支柱：再分配、扩大民主和结构改革。我发现，针对种族公正的韧性提出的战略是主流的、不公正的韧性规划的可喜进步。然而，历史表明，最近的讨论中对受压迫社区程序正义的关注可能会限制其范围和持久性。最后，我对气候活动家和学者可以扩大的领域提出了建议，因为在绿色新政下，雄心勃勃的思想正在出现政治空间。
Planners and activists are identifying ways to promote equitable adaptation that counter climate injustice. This article explores how this progressive turn in adaptation compares with past progressive movements. I argue urban progressive politics have cyclical tendencies toward liberalism and radicalism, and that the evolution of planning for climate adaptation mirrors these waves. I review 10 recent guidance documents that recommend strategies for enhancing racially just adaptation. I then assess how these recommendations advance the three pillars of progressive reforms: redistribution, expansion of democracy, and structural reform. I find that proposed strategies for racially just resilience are a welcome advance from mainstream, unjust resilience planning. However, history suggests that the focus on procedural justice for oppressed communities seen in recent discourse may limit their scope and durability. I conclude with suggestions for areas where climate activists and scholars can expand given emerging political space for ambitious thinking under a Green New Deal.
