智慧城市包括广泛的技术创新，这些创新可能因各种原因而应用于任何城市。在这篇文章中，我区分了重塑城市景观的地方努力和这些努力所借鉴并帮助维持的全球智慧城市想象。虽然人们已经注意到智慧城市概念在全球范围内的可延展性，但仍然很少有人努力询问未来用于批准具体解决方案的方式。通过对智慧城市营销材料、行业文件和咨询报告的批判性参与，我探索了未来是如何被招募、重新安排和表现为当前技术干预的合理化的。这是在三个反复出现的危机中进行的：大规模的人口变化和随之而来的资源压力，全球气候变化，以及财政紧缩的相互冲突的要求，这些要求激发了许多城市吸引外国直接投资和高技能工人的愿望。在揭示危机是如何被先发制人、先发制人和未雨绸缪的过程中，我认为，智慧城市的想象使自由资本主义下被认为适当的反应方式和规模正常化。
The smart city encompasses a broad range of technological innovations which might be applied to any city for a wide variety of reasons. In this article, I make a distinction between local efforts to reshape the urban landscape, and a global smart city imaginary which those efforts draw upon and help sustain. While attention has been given to the malleability of the smart city concept at this global scale, there remains little effort to interrogate the way that the future is used to sanction specific solutions. Through a critical engagement with smart city marketing materials, industry documents, and consultancy reports, I explore how the future is recruited, rearranged, and represented as a rationalization for technological intervention in the present. This is performed amidst three recurring crises: massive demographic shifts and subsequent resource pressures, global climate change, and the conflicting demands of fiscal austerity that motivate the desire of so many cities to attract foreign direct investment and highly skilled workers. In revealing how crises are pre-empted, precautioned, and prepared for, I argue that the smart city imaginary normalizes a style and scale of response deemed appropriate under liberal capitalism.
