In the midst of debates in urban studies and political ecology around the disciplines' epistemological directions, urban agricultural studies have a great deal to contribute to alternative socio-environmental futures. I propose a supportive case study that challenges hitherto dominant Anglophone narratives of urbanisation and municipal agency. The city of Almere, 30 miles east from Amsterdam, is seeing the rapid development of various urban-agricultural projects. Most prominently, the re-wilding experiment in the Oostvaardersplassen, the creation of an integrated horticultural neighbourhood 'Floriade' before its national exhibition in 2022 and the development of an urban-agricultural fringe, 'Almere Oosterwold'. The restructuring of Almere's urban socio-environmental integration presents conceptions of governance beyond a neoliberal approach, supporting opportunities for the creation of spontaneous urban natures. Thus, I will be asking the question: How does Almere challenge non-dualistic conceptions of municipal governance that entices the creation of collective socio-environmental assemblages? The project seeks to contribute to the current debate of diverging governmental stances to ecological assemblages by drawing upon work in both political ecology and urban studies. It analyses the city's creation of spontaneous urban spaces for an alleged harmonious relation to its ecological knowledge. Local responses to such discourses have already taken place, such as neighbourhood initiatives regarding soil subsidence management. Welcoming such initiatives, Almere's development before the national horticultural exhibition in 2022 poses as a potential milestone for the recognition of spontaneous and unintentional landscapes. The research will draw from neighbourhood initiatives and interviews with policy makers to critically analyse the municipal interference in the spontaneous urban experiments. Furthermore, I will be initiating a neighbourhood project that aims to exhibit the changing urban environmental relationship of residents to surrounding marginal ecologies. Consisting of exhibition pieces within neighbourhoods the project aims become part of a final exhibition, expected to be presented alongside Almere Floriade for the national horticultural exhibition in 2022.

在城市研究和政治生态学围绕学科认识论方向的争论中，城市农业研究对替代性社会环境未来做出了很大贡献。我提出了一个支持性的案例研究，挑战迄今占主导地位的城市化和市政机构的英语叙述。阿姆斯特丹以东30英里的阿尔梅勒市正在见证各种城市农业项目的快速发展。最突出的是在Oostvaardersplassen进行的重新野生化实验，在2022年国家展览之前创建一个综合园艺社区“Floriade”，以及开发一个城市农业边缘区“Almere Oosterwold”。阿尔梅勒的城市社会环境一体化的重组提出了超越新自由主义方法的治理概念，支持创造自发的城市性质的机会。因此，我将提出这样一个问题：阿尔梅勒如何挑战吸引集体社会环境组合的创建的市政治理的非二元概念？该项目旨在通过借鉴政治生态学和城市研究方面的工作，为当前关于政府对生态组合的不同立场的辩论做出贡献。它分析了城市自发的城市空间的创造，声称和谐的关系，其生态知识。当地已经对这些话语做出了回应，例如关于土壤沉降管理的邻里倡议。欢迎这些举措，Almere在2022年国家园艺展览会之前的发展成为认可自发和无意景观的潜在里程碑。该研究将借鉴邻里倡议和与政策制定者的访谈，批判性地分析自发城市实验中的市政干预。此外，我还将启动一个社区项目，旨在展示居民与周围边缘生态之间不断变化的城市环境关系。该项目由社区内的展览作品组成，旨在成为最终展览的一部分，预计将与Almere Floriade一起在2022年的国家园艺展上展出。
