最近的国际城市整合趋势旨在通过将增长集中在现有社区内来减少城市向外扩张，这可能会引起城市的争夺。了解大众媒体如何代表城市整合可以带来更明智和民主的规划实践。本文采用社会表征理论来识别和理解报纸媒体中城市整合的表征。该理论认为，媒体是公共话语的主要传播者，可以反映、塑造或压制社会中传播的思想。这种新颖的方法此前尚未应用于理解大众媒体中城市整合策略的社会表征。以澳大利亚布里斯班快速发展和变化的城市作为案例研究。布里斯班位于澳大利亚发展最快的昆士兰州东南部，受区域和地方规划政策的管辖，这些政策大力支持现有城市地区增加密度。对 2007 年至 2014 年间布里斯班报纸上发表的 449 篇文章进行的定量文本分析的结果揭示了共同出现的单词的关键集群和类别，这些单词代表了报纸语料库中明显的主导社会表征。该论文提供了两个关键结论。首先，大众媒体中出现的社会表征代表了关于城市整合辩论的“常识”理解和评估的重要信息来源。第二，城市整合是一个多方面的问题，包括住房、可持续人口增长、投资策略以及政治与规划之间的相互作用等相互关联的主题。
Recent international trends towards urban consolidation, intended to reduce outward urban sprawl by concentrating growth within existing neighbourhoods, can cause contention in cities. Understanding how the mass media represents urban consolidation can lead to more informed and democratic planning practices. This paper employs Social Representations Theory to identify and understand representations of urban consolidation in newspaper media. The theory recognises that the media is a key purveyor of public discourse and can reflect, shape or suppress ideas circulating in society. This novel approach has not previously been applied to understanding social representations of urban consolidation strategies in the mass media. The rapidly growing and changing city of Brisbane, Australia, is utilised as a case study. Brisbane is situated in South East Queensland, the fastest growing region in Australia, and is governed by regional and local planning policies that strongly support increased densities in existing urban areas. Findings from a quantitative textual analysis of 449 articles published in Brisbane newspapers between 2007 and 2014 reveal key clusters and classes of co-occurring words that represent dominant social representations apparent in the newspaper corpus. The paper provides two key conclusions. The first is that social representations occurring in mass media represent an important source of information about ‘common sense’ understandings and evaluations of urban consolidation debates. The second is that urban consolidation is represented as a multifaceted issue, including interrelated themes of housing, sustainable population growth, investment strategies and the interplay between politics and planning.
