中等收入国家扩大的国家补贴住房计划提出了贫困家庭流离失所和社会空间边缘化的问题。通过人们重新安置的经历来审视这些问题，可以看出流动性对他们生活的重要性。借鉴对阿赫梅达巴德、金奈和约翰内斯堡的混合方法比较研究，我们提出这样一个问题：低收入家庭搬迁到城市周边地区如何重塑他们的物质和社会经济流动性之间的联系，以及这如何影响他们建设安全的城市未来的能力？迁往五个周边住区的家庭的经历表明，周边城市穷人的社会和经济流动面临两个相互关联的挑战：第一，他们在城市内移动的直接和个人能力;第二，他们家庭的长期社会流动性。虽然实现人人享有城市公民权的目标仍然是一项政策愿望，但住房政策和做法使这一愿望被搁置，甚至发生逆转，流动性限制使许多低收入群体陷入边缘化。
Expanded state-subsidised housing programmes in middle-income countries raise questions about the displacement and socio-spatial marginalisation of poor households. Examining these questions through people’s experiences of resettlement indicates the importance of mobility to their lives. Drawing on a mixed-method comparative study of Ahmedabad, Chennai and Johannesburg, we ask: How does the relocation of low-income households to urban peripheries reshape the links between their physical and socio-economic mobility, and how does this impact on their ability to build secure urban futures? Experiences of families moving to five peripheral settlements indicate two linked challenges to the social and economic mobility of the peripheralised urban poor: first, their immediate and individual ability to be mobile within the city and second, the longer-term social mobility of their households. While trajectories towards secure urban citizenship for all remain a policy aspiration, housing policies and practices are placing this on hold or even reversing this, with mobility constraints locking many low-income groups into marginality.
