翻译后摘要：本文探讨了有争议的建设更多的关系城市内的一个运动，同时致力于加强系统的照顾遥远的地方/他人，并加强制度（重新）本地化。 过渡文化倡议探索“如何为碳约束，能源节约型世界做好准备”，并源于对石油峰值后全球未来的担忧。虽然过渡文化的激进的政治开放性与关系空间的倡导者所想象的更多样化的政体的愿景（例如Amin，2004）是一致的，但我们认为这种开放性是基于一种非政治的实用主义，这种实用主义掩盖了环境友好的地方主义和远距离关怀伦理之间的潜在紧张关系。如果说一种过渡性的空间伦理占据了关系地理想象和地域地理想象之间的不确定基础，那么过渡性文化运动提供了一个丰富的背景，在这个背景中，我们可以探索源于不同的地方制造策略的伦理难题。
Abstract: This paper explores the contested construction of more relational urban imaginaries within a movement that is simultaneously committed to enhanced systems of care for distant places/others, and intensified regimes of (re)localisation. Transition Culture initiatives explore ‘how to prepare for a carbon constrained, energy lean world’ and stem from a concern for a post peak-oil global future. While the radical political openness of Transition Culture is in keeping with the vision of a more diverse polity imagined by advocates of relational space (for instance Amin, 2004), we argue that this openness is predicated upon an apolitical pragmatism that masks latent tensions between an environmentally benign localism and an ethics of care at-a-distance. If a transitional ethics of space occupies the uncertain ground between a relational and territorial geographical imagination, the Transition Culture movement provides a rich context within which to explore the ethical conundrums that stem from different tactics of place-making.
