本文件有两个目的。第一部分分析了当前城市气候变化治理思想的三个局限性。首先，目前的行动是在城市乐观主义浪潮中出现的，对以前的气候变化行动的历史敏感性有限。其次，强调城市是气候行动分析单位的研究忽视了气候变化政策的移动的性质。第三，对全球城市或作为示范地点建造的替代地点的关注，使人们的注意力从最需要采取气候行动的普通行动环境中转移开来。本文的第二部分将这一分析作为呼吁气候变化治理研究的主要动机，以应对城市知识和行动的混乱。提出了三种混乱理论。第一个是将治理作为混乱的想法与激进环境行动的后殖民分析联系起来。第二部分强调了当前认识城市的方法中的混乱，以及情境知识的逻辑。第三种强调身体、社会和情感之间关系的混乱，这些关系是日常生活相互作用的特征。
The purpose of this paper is two-fold. The first part diagnoses three limitations of current thought on the urban governance of climate change. First, current action emerges within a wave of urban optimism with limited historical sensitivity to previous climate change action. Second, the mobile nature of climate change policies is overlooked in studies that emphasize cities as the unit of analysis for climate action. Third, the focus on global cities or alternative locations that are constructed as exemplary sites takes attention away from the ordinary contexts of action where climate action is most needed. The second part of the paper uses this analysis as the main motivation for a call for studies of climate change governance to engage with the messiness of urban knowledge and action. Three theories of messiness are put forward. The first relates the idea of governance as messiness to postcolonial analyses of radical environmental action. The second emphasizes the messiness embedded in current methods of knowing the city, and the logic of situated knowledge. The third emphasizes messiness in the relations between the body, society and the emotions characterizing the interactions of everyday life.
