本文将时尚视为一种复杂的、多维的知识形式和一种服装大规模生产技术。它识别了时尚知识的各种模式,并根据其相对复杂性描述了它们在空间和时间上传播的不同速率和程度。本文探讨了时尚知识在经济中的时空配置,探讨了不同形态的不均匀粘度随其在地理空间中的定位以及与其他形态的关系而变化的方式。然后,它评估了时尚在特定地点的重新组合的经济影响。通过研究国际时尚趋势对澳大利亚市场时尚服装供应的影响,可以证明这些相互作用。本文概述的观点强调了主导知识地理的默认的二元论的不足,并说明了为什么时尚理念的传播会巩固而不是削弱专家知识关键站点的力量。版权所有 2007,牛津大学出版社。
This article develops a perspective of fashion as a complex, multi-dimensional form of knowledge and as a technology of garment mass production. It identifies the various modalities of fashion knowledge and characterises their different rates and extents of transmission across space and time in terms of their relative complexity. The article explores the spatio--temporal configurations of fashion knowledge as it is mobilised in the economy, interrogating the ways in which the uneven viscosity of its different modalities vary with their positioning in geographical space and in relation to other modalities. It then assesses the economic implications of fashion's place-specific re-combinations. These interactions are demonstrated by an examination of the impacts of international fashion trends on fashion garment supplies to the Australian market. The perspective outlined in this article highlights the inadequacies of the tacit--codified binaries that have dominated geographies of knowledge and shows why the transmission of fashion ideas consolidates rather than diminishes the power of key sites of expert knowledge.
