摘要
近年来,有关全球化的文献在学术界不断涌现,它们主要集中探讨社会关系脱离本土—地域条件的现象。然而,这些理论大多忽略了相对固定和静止的地域组织(如城市区域集群和国家)在全球化发展中所起的重要作用。本文的主要论点为,再地域化(reterritorialisation)——即各类地域组织(如城市与国家)的结构重整与尺度重组,是全球化的固有现象。本文把全球化理解为社会、经济和政治制度空间的再地域化,以及这种再地域化与外在多重地理尺度相互交织的过程。城市空间和国家机器等地域组织与全球化互为因果。它们既是全球化的前提,也是全球化作用于地方的载体与结果。因此,当代欧洲城市管治应该理解为一种"尺度的政治"(politicsofscale),是城市转型与国家地域重构相互作用的产物。
In the rapidly growing literatures on globalisation, many authors have emphasised the apparent disembedding of social relations from their local-territorial pre-conditions. However, such arguments neglect the relatively fixed and immobile forms of territorial organisation upon which the current round of globalisation is premised, such as urban-regional agglomerations and territorial states. This article argues that processes of reterritorialisation-the reconfiguration and re-scaling of forms of territorial organisation such as cities and states-constitute an intrinsic moment of the current round of globalisation. Globalisation is conceived here as a reterritorialisation of both socioeconomic and political-institutional spaces that unfolds simultaneously upon multiple, superimposed geographical scales. The territorial organisation of contemporary urban spaces and state institutions must be viewed at once as a presupposition, a medium and an outcome of this highly conflictual dynamic of global spatial restructuring. On this basis, various dimensions of urban governance in contemporary Europe are analysed as expressions of a politics of scale that is emerging at the geographical interface between processes of urban restructuring and state territorial restructuring.
