在这篇文章中,我们试图推进我们对以前认为不容易受到这种过程影响的人口的无家可归的理解。我们在城市边缘的新兴空间中研究了特殊形式的创伤,这种创伤是通过一个迄今为止已知和可预测的世界中长期存在的公民与国家关系的破裂和对家园的习惯性取向的破裂而产生的。在这篇文章中,我们强调了等待在无家可归的经历中的中心地位,它作为一种统治机制,统治一个新近受到边缘化具体表现的群体;这一机制对于理解城市位移的分化动态具有特殊意义。在本文中,我们对居住在受消防安全缺陷影响的建筑物中的英国住宅公寓的31名居民进行了采访,这些建筑物是在2017年伦敦格伦费尔大厦火灾后发现的,其中72人死亡。我们认为,对城市剥夺的研究需要关注独特的过程和后果——以及对无家可归的抵制。新受影响人口的经历揭示了以住房为基础的城市公民身份的根本不稳定性和不平等的权力关系。
In this article we seek to advance our understanding of unhoming in a population not previously perceived to be vulnerable to such processes. We examine the particular forms of trauma in an emergent space of urban marginality, which has arisen through the fracturing of longstanding citizen–state relations and the rupturing of habitual orientations to home in a world that had hitherto been knowable and predictable. In this article we highlight the centrality of waiting in experiences of unhoming, which act as a mechanism of domination over a group newly subject to a specific manifestation of marginality; this mechanism has particular significance for understanding the differentiated dynamics of urban displacement. In this article we utilize interviews with 31 residents of residential flats in England living in buildings affected by fire safety defects, identified following the 2017 Grenfell Tower fire disaster in London in which 72 individuals died. We argue that research on urban dispossession needs to be attentive to distinctive processes and consequences of—and resistance to—unhoming. The experiences of newly affected populations unmask the underpinning precarity and unequal power relations of housing‐based urban citizenship.
