Amenities and housing market dynamics: Implications for population change, urban attractiveness, innovation, and productivity
便利设施和住房市场动态：对人口变化、城市吸引力、创新和生产力的影响
This introductory essay aims to provide a comprehensive overview of a collection of 17 articles, previously published in the Urban Studies journal, now consolidated as a ‘virtual special issue’. The articles contribute to numerous strands of what has, over the decades, become an extremely voluminous literature concerning the interplay between population change and productivity within cities. It is important to acknowledge that the volume of this literature makes it effectively impossible to summarise effectively in a single essay. This article instead presents a contextual overview, a glimpse into the various thematic strands arising from the literature, and an introduction to each of the selected virtual special issue articles themselves. It briefly highlights the unique contributions of these articles to the overarching objective of the Urban Studies journal, which is to advance our understanding of the urban condition. Yet, it is also worth noting that the literature does not neatly segregate into distinct strands. Indeed, several contributing authors within the virtual special issue rightly emphasise the significant interdependencies between population change, migration patterns, specialisation, firm location, urban and natural amenities, agglomeration economies, and productivity. This essay attempts to progress logically from one strand to another, with a specific focus on labour and housing markets, as well as transportation costs or systems, as mediators of these complex relationships. Finally, the essay concludes by bringing attention to several strands of future inquiry that might prove fruitful and would be of interest to the readership of this journal.
这篇导论性文章旨在全面概述之前在《城市研究》期刊上已发表，现在合并为“虚拟特刊”的 17 篇文章。数十年来，这些文章启发了大量和多方面的有关城市人口变化和生产力之间相互作用的研究。必须承认，由于文献数量庞大，一篇文章不足以对其进行有效的总结。本文将介绍背景概况、文献中出现的各种主题线索，以及每篇选定的虚拟特刊文章本身。本文简要强调了这些文章对《城市研究》期刊的总体目标的独特贡献，即增进我们对城市状况的了解。然而，还值得注意的是，文献并非能够整齐地划入独立的主题与线索。事实上，虚拟特刊中的几位撰稿作者充分地强调了人口变化、移民模式、专业化、公司位置、城市和自然设施、集聚经济以及生产力之间的重要相互依赖关系。本文试图合乎逻辑地从一个线索推进到另一个线索，特别关注劳动力和住房市场，以及运输成本或系统，作为这些复杂关系的媒介。最后，本文总结了几条未来可能会富有成效，并且本期刊读者会感兴趣的研究线索。

解决机动化问题：班加罗尔基础设施解决主义的逻辑
Sreelakshmi Ramachandran（加拿大协和大学）Govind Gopakumar（加拿大协和大学）Cities often deploy infrastructure-based solutions to tackle problems such as congestion caused by increasing motorisation rates. Such solutions include the introduction of complete streets or improved public transit systems. However, these solutions are often viewed as ‘quick fixes’ that are expected to resolve issues with ease. This article examines this phenomenon, which we call infrastructure solutionism, through two case studies in Bengaluru, India – re-shaping public transportation to attract car users through demand management, and redesigning major streets to accommodate varied users through parcelling. Through these case studies, it becomes evident that infrastructure solutions did not address the problems caused due to motorisation. Building upon the literature on technological solutionism in Science and Technology Studies, this article unpacks rationalities of infrastructure solutionism by examining material, valuational and expectational commitments mobilised through each case, and suggests that such solutions appear to be concerned with city image building, rather than addressing the chokehold of automobilisation.城市经常部署基于基础设施的解决方案，来解决机动化率的提高造成的交通拥堵等问题。这些解决方案包括引入完整的街道或改善公共交通系统。然而，这些解决方案通常被视为指望能够轻松解决问题的“权宜之计”。本文选取了印度班加罗尔的两个案例，通过对其进行案例研究，来探讨这种我们称之为基础设施解决主义的现象——通过需求管理重塑公共交通以吸引汽车用户，以及通过分区规划重新设计主要街道以满足不同使用者的需求。通过这些案例研究，我们可以清楚地看到基础设施解决方案并未解决机动化带来的问题。本文借鉴了科学与技术研究领域中关于技术解决主义的文献，通过考察每个案例中调集的物质、价值和预期承诺，揭示了基础设施解决主义的内在逻辑，并表明这些解决方案似乎与城市形象建设有关，而不是解决汽车化带来的瓶颈问题。

文化向东：通过主要文化建筑描绘城市文化资本的地理变迁
Culture has become a major component of policies to put cities on the global map. This article traces the shifting geographies of urban cultural capital using the lens of major cultural buildings, such as the Guggenheim Bilbao Museum and the Louvre Abu Dhabi, which cities often mobilise to compete for attention, reputation, tourists and investment. Based on a custom-built database containing 438 major cultural buildings opened worldwide between 1990 and 2019, this article finds a strong growth in the number and total cost of these buildings throughout the three decades, far exceeding global GDP growth. What is more, there is a geographical shift from the established cities of high culture in North America and Western Europe towards Asia, with a particular concentration in China and the Gulf region. The growth of investment in culture and its fast-changing urban geographies urge a more profound integration of culture in urban studies and a deeper consideration of the role of cultural capital in making global cities.文化已成为让城市在全球版图上获得一席之地政策的主要组成部分。本文从毕尔巴鄂古根海姆博物馆和阿布扎比卢浮宫等主要文化建筑的视角，追溯了城市文化资本的地理变化。这些文化资本，常被城市动员起来争夺注意力、声誉、游客和投资。根据包含 1990 年至 2019 年间在全球范围内开放的 438 座主要文化建筑的定制数据库，本文发现这些建筑的数量和总成本在过去三十年中强劲增长，远远超过了全球 GDP 的增长。此外，它们的地理分布出现了从北美和西欧成熟的高雅文化城市向亚洲的转移，尤其集中在中国和海湾地区。文化投资的增长及其快速变化的城市地理分布揭示了城市研究中更深入地融合文化视角的迫切需要，并促使人们更深入地思考文化资本在打造全球城市中的作用。

Abstract
Neighbourhood outcomes of migration have drawn considerable scholarly attention. Previous studies consider neighbourhood trust an indicator of social integration or social resources, revealing inconclusive findings regarding the effects of migration. Unlike previous studies, we view neighbourhood trust as a lifestyle feature. Combining urbanism theory and a typology of trust, we argue that migration causes a reduction in migrants’ neighbourhood trust through the assimilation of the urbanism lifestyle. We provide nationwide empirical evidence of the causal relationship between migration and neighbourhood trust and reveal the underlying mechanism. Our study identifies this relationship in urban China by applying a difference-in-differences empirical strategy and using the China Family Panel Survey. The results show that migration lowers neighbourhood trust levels by 0.473 from a sample mean of 6.692. We find that the declining effect is greater for rural–urban migrants than for within-urban migrants, and it is greater for rural–urban migrants who acquire urban hukou than for those who do not. We also show that rural–urban migration leads to an increase in trust in strangers. Together, these results support our hypothesis that the assimilation of the urbanism lifestyle is a critical mechanism through which migration undermines neighbourhood trust.
移民给邻里关系带来的影响引起了相当多的学术关注。先前的研究认为邻里信任是社会融合或社会资源的指标，揭示出关于移民影响的不确定发现。与之前的研究不同，我们将邻里信任视为一种生活方式特征。结合城市化理论和信任类型学，我们认为，移民使得迁移者因为接受城市化生活方式，而对邻里的信任减少。本文提供了全国范围内关于移民与邻里信任之间因果关系的实证证据，并揭示了其潜在机制。本文通过应用双重差分实证策略，并利用《中国家庭追踪调查》，确定了中国城市中的这种关系。结果表明，移民使邻里信任水平从 6.692 的样本均值降低了 0.473 。我们发现，乡村到城市迁移者的下降效应大于城市内迁移者，获得城市户口的乡村到城市迁移者的下降效应也大于没有城市户口的迁移者。我们还表明，乡村到城市迁移会导致对陌生人的信任增加。总之，这些结果支持了我们的假设，即城市化生活方式的同化是迁移破坏邻里信任的关键机制。

多尺度、多方向的城市企业主义下中国以教育为特色的封闭社区中关于公立学校专享权利的协商
How urban entrepreneurialism is enacted at the neighbourhood level while connecting with broader urban processes remains insufficiently explored. This study introduces a novel conceptual framework of multiscalar and multidirectional urban entrepreneurialism to examine the governance of gated communities that involves dynamic interactions between the entrepreneurial local state, developers, gated communities and individual homeowners/investor-citizens. In Chinese cities, the pursuit of quality living and good schools has given rise to ‘education-featured gated communities’ that package privileged access to K–12 schools with tailor-made residential services. By turning education from a public good into a club good that can be capitalised in the housing price and leveraged in urban (re)development, education-featured gated communities are highly sought after by homebuyers, developers, and local states, becoming an important and integral component of urban entrepreneurialism. When the rising demands of gated community homeowners for school places are not met, activism for quality education within gated communities becomes ubiquitous. Drawing on multiple case studies and multi-source empirical data including national and local policies/documents, in-depth interviews, non-participant observation and site visits, this research examines how homeowners negotiate their exclusive right to public schools through intensive interactions with local authorities. We argue that the semi-private governance of gated communities forms the institutional basis for the ‘shareholding enterprise’ centering on property values. By unpacking the multidirectional processes of entrepreneurial governance that built upon an effective feedback loop involving multiscalar entrepreneurial endeavours based on shareholder value, this study offers a nuanced and enriched understanding of contemporary urban entrepreneurialism.摘要
城市企业主义如何在街区层面发挥作用，同时与更广泛的城市进程相联系，这一问题仍未得到充分探索。本文针对多尺度、多方向的城市企业主义引入了一个新颖的概念框架，以考察封闭式社区的治理中涉及的企业型地方政府、开发商、封闭式社区和个人房主/投资者公民之间的动态互动。在中国城市中，对优质生活和好学校的追求催生了“以教育为特色的封闭社区”，这些社区将进入基础教育学校的特权与量身定制的住宅服务结合起来。通过将教育从公共产品转变为可以在房价中资本化并在城市（再）开发中加以利用的俱乐部产品，以教育为特色的封闭社区受到购房者、开发商和地方政府的高度追捧，成为城市企业主义的重要组成部分。当封闭社区房主日益增长的学位需求得不到满足时，封闭社区内寻求优质教育的运动就变得无处不在。我们利用多个案例研究和多源实证数据，包括国家和地方政策/文件、深度访谈、非参与观察和实地考察，探讨了房主如何通过与地方当局的密切互动来协商其公立学校的专享权利。我们认为，封闭社区的半私人治理构成了以财产价值为核心的“股份制企业”的制度基础。通过剖析建立在有效反馈循环基础上的企业型城市治理的多方向进程，本文提供了对当代城市企业主义细致而丰富的理解；这些有效反馈循环，涉及基于股东价值的多尺度企业型行为。
