本研究以行动者为导向，着重探讨城市规划师在中国封闭式社区建设中的作用。探讨了他们的相关价值观以及影响他们偏好和规划选择的结构性因素。主要的实证依据是对全国城市规划师的大规模调查。例如，结果显示，大多数被调查的规划者本身就是封闭社区的居民。这一点非常重要，因为他们的居住经历和中产阶级身份可能会影响他们的价值观和职业观点。此外，他们对门控的态度与他们为之工作的地方政府的观点密切相关，鉴于现行的权力结构，这是可以理解的。结果发现，大多数规划者要么支持门控社区或没有看到太多的杠杆作用，对他们采取行动，但许多人能够实现修正，以减少门控的负面影响。
This study takes an actor-oriented perspective and focuses on the role of urban planners in the production of gated communities in China. It probes their related values and the structural factors influencing their preferences and planning choices. The main empirical basis is a large-scale survey of urban planners throughout China. The results show for example that most of the surveyed planners are residents of gated communities themselves. This is highly important, because their residential experiences and middle-class identities are likely to affect their values and professional perspectives. Their attitudes towards gating furthermore strongly correlate with the views of the local governments for whom they work, which is understandable in view of the prevailing power structures. It is found that most planners either support gated communities or do not see much leverage to act against them, but that many are able to achieve amendments to reduce negative effects of gating.
