Growing public spaces in the city
2021
Overview
The demise of public space in cities across the Global North has received considerable scrutiny from urban scholars in recent years, with accounts of the loss, privatisation and increased regulation of public space prevalent within the academic literature. This paper seeks to complicate these dominant narratives of public space transformation by exploring the complexities of existing public spaces and the emergence of new spaces of publicness in the city. It uses a case study of community gardening in mundane and everyday neighbourhood spaces to provide a more nuanced and progressive reading of the relations between publicness and space in the city. Drawing on empirical materials from recent research on community gardening projects in 15 cities in Australia, Canada, the UK and the USA, the paper highlights how community gardening is creating new environments of publicness across public, private and in-between spaces that complicate both the end of public space discourse and conventional understandings of public space within urban studies.
近年来，全球北方城市公共空间的消亡受到了城市学者的广泛关注，学术界普遍对公共空间的丧失、私有化和监管力度加大进行了论述。本文试图探索现有公共空间的复杂性和城市公共性新空间的出现，以使这些公共空间转型的主流叙事精细化。我们使用一个平凡和日常街区空间内的社区园艺案例研究，提供了对城市公共性和空间之间关系的更细致和进步的解读。根据最近在澳大利亚、加拿大、英国和美国15个城市进行的社区园艺项目研究的经验材料，本文强调社区园艺是如何在公共、私人和中间空间创造新的公共性环境的，这些空间使得城市研究中公共空间终结的论述和对公共空间的传统理解变得更为复杂。
