是什么造就了一座城市?而不是一个整体,一个城市是最好的理解,通过关注不同的,但相互关联的空间和过程,使双方的活力和不稳定的人类生活。因此,这本书涵盖了许多网站,以探索他们的联系。封闭式住宅区的乐趣如何包含被拆除的贫民窟的痛苦?郊区生活的地方化仪式如何融入民族国家的象征性程序?什么样的过程将当代消费主义、中产阶级和城市贫民联系在一起?诸如“贫民窟”等“非法”定居点、旨在阻止贫民窟拆除的假文件的流通以及诸如“法律的”城市代表之间的关系会产生一个什么样的城市居民福利协会(RWA)?RWA在城市的政治中日益增加的可见度可以告诉我们关于公民身份的新概念以及中产阶级、国家和市场之间的新兴关系的什么?而且,新形式的城市宗教信仰、对“全球”城市的渴望和新的消费文化之间有什么共同点?通过这些关键主题,本书将城市视为一系列重叠的意义,而不是可识别的城市本质。OSO提供:http://www.oxfordscholarship.com/oso/public/content/sociology/9780198099147/toc.html
What makes a city? Rather than a totality, a city is best understood through focusing upon different but interconnected spaces and processes that make for both dynamism and instability in human lives. Hence, the book ranges across a number of sites in order to explore their connections. How do the pleasures of the gated residential enclave encompass the pain of the demolished slum locality? How do localized rituals of suburban life incorporate the symbolic procedures of the nation-state? What processes link contemporary manifestations of consumerism, the middle-classes, and the urban poor? What kind of a city is produced by the relationship between 'illegal' settlements such as 'slums', the traffic in fake documents that seek to stave of slum-demolitions and representatives of the 'legal' city such as Residents Welfare Associations (RWAs)? What can the increasing visibility of RWAs in the quotidian politics of the city tell us about new notions of citizenship and the emergent relationships between middle-classes, the state and the market? And, what is shared between new forms of urban religiosity, the desire for a 'global' city and new consumer cultures? Through these key themes, the book examines the city as a series of overlapping meanings rather than as identifiable urban essence.
