我们通过关注服务中心,即那些旨在帮助最弱势城市人口的志愿部门组织的显著集群,揭示了研究不足的社会基础设施。以大坂釜长崎市为例,我们发现,服务中心作为一个独特的内城社会基础设施,其特点是非常接近的客户和服务,以及高可达性,相互性和临时性,以及明确的动机,以确保日常生存。但是,服务中心和社会基础设施之间的对话表明,我们的案例研究必须被理解为一个不起眼的基础设施,默默无闻,与市场不同步(但与国家越来越不同步)。釜崎提出了一种由废弃物组成的社会基础设施,这种基础设施与当前的城市主义及其对私有化、绅士化和新自由主义拉拢的强调越来越不相容,甚至与福特主义时代强调大规模普遍性的旧“基础设施理想”也越来越不相容。
We shed light on understudied social infrastructure by focusing on the service hub, those conspicuous clusters of voluntary sector organizations designed to help the most vulnerable urban populations. Using Kamagasaki, Osaka as an exploratory case study, we find that the service hub acts as a distinctly inner-city social infrastructure marked by very close proximity of clients and services, as well as high accessibility, mutuality, and provisionality, and clear motivations to ensure day-to-day survival. But the conversation between service hub and social infrastructure indicates that our case study must be understood as abypassed infrastructure, unsung and out-of-sync with the market (but increasingly less so with the state). Kamagasaki suggested an social infrastructure of castoffs, standing apart and increasingly incompatible with current urbanism and its emphasis on privatization, gentrification, and neoliberal co-optation, or even with the older "infrastructural ideal" of the Fordist era, with its emphasis on large-scale universality.
