Cities and Smart Technology: The Case of Cycling
城市与智能技术:以骑行为例
The term ‘smart cities’ describes a bundle of informational technologies that are profoundly reconfiguring how cities are managed and experienced. This piece is an introduction to a special issue of the journal on cycling, cities, and smart technology. For all the attention on smart cities within the social sciences, surprisingly little scholarship has focused on the ways that specific technologies and practices are enrolled or incorporated into ideas and visions for the smart city or smart urbanism. The articles in the special issue “Cities and Smart Technology: The Case of Cycling” seek to address this lacuna.“智慧城市”这个术语描述了一系列信息技术,这些技术正在深刻地重新配置城市的管理和体验方式。这篇文章是关于城市、骑行与智能技术的专题期刊的介绍。尽管社会科学领域对智慧城市给予了很多关注,但令人惊讶的是,学术界对具体技术和实践如何被纳入或融入智慧城市或智慧城市主义的理念和愿景的研究却很少。专题期刊《城市与智能技术:骑行的案例》中的文章旨在填补这一空白。

Community Smarts in Grassroots Initiatives to Support Cycling and Walking in Large Urban Areas
在大城市中支持骑行和步行的基层倡议中的社区智慧
In the popular imagination, smart mobility, much like the smart city, is a high-tech utopia of mobility efficiency and environmental sustainability. However, a growing body of literature is questioning the promises associated with “digital solutions,” particularly with respect to the neoliberal rationales behind their deployment. On the other hand, relatively few scholars have taken the same critical analysis to smart mobility. In this article we draw on interviews with leaders of grassroots organizations that support walking and cycling among marginalized communities in São Paulo and London to argue that “smart” interventions in active transportation do not have to be top-down, technocratic, or necessarily digital, though they may be so, when informed by community input. We suggest that the locally sensitive knowledge behind grassroots initiatives may demonstrate a form of “community smarts” that enhances capabilities and itself informs whether or not, and if so how, to use digital technologies to advance social and environmental missions.在大众想象中,智能出行就像智能城市一样,是一个高科技的乌托邦,体现了出行效率和环境可持续性。然而,越来越多的文献开始质疑与“数字解决方案”相关的承诺,特别是关于其部署背后的新自由主义理由。另一方面,相对较少的学者对智能出行进行同样的批判性分析。本文通过对支持圣保罗和伦敦边缘社区步行和骑行的基层组织领导者的访谈,认为“智能”干预在主动交通领域不一定需要自上而下、技术官僚化或必然是数字化的,尽管它们可能会如此,只要有社区的参与。我们建议,基层倡议背后的地方敏感知识可能展示了一种“社区智慧”,这种智慧提升了能力,并指导是否、以及如何利用数字技术推进社会和环境使命。

Smart Cities and (Smart) Cycling: Exploring the Synergies in Copenhagen and Amsterdam
智慧城市与(智慧)骑行:探索哥本哈根和阿姆斯特丹的协同效应
In cities worldwide, cycling is increasingly upgraded with smart technology and is included in smart cities' visions and projects. This process has not been problematized in public discourse, as smart innovation is seen as a potential booster of the known benefits of cycling. Drawing on critical literatures on smart cities, smart mobility, and degrowth and using the case studies of Copenhagen and Amsterdam, the article opens up a more critical conversation on the subject, discussing the role of "techno-solutionism,” technology push, and pro-innovation bias in the process of “smartification” of cycling.全球范围内,城市中的骑行越来越多地与智能技术升级相结合,并被纳入智能城市的愿景和项目中。这一过程在公众话语中尚未被问题化,因为智能创新被视为提升骑行已知好处的潜在推动力。本文借鉴了关于智能城市、智能出行以及去增长的批判性文献,并以哥本哈根和阿姆斯特丹为案例,展开了对这一主题的更为批判性的讨论,探讨了“技术解决主义”、技术推动和创新偏见在骑行“智能化”过程中的作用。

Valuing“Othered” Rationalities in the Smart City: Examining Children’s Cycling from a Justice Perspective
在智慧城市中重视“其他化”理性:从正义角度审视儿童骑行
This article seeks to contribute to the intersection of children’s mobility (specifically cycling) by assessing the extent to which emerging socio-technical smart city systems accommodate children’s rationalities. In order to do so, it reviews literature on children’s mobility, cycling, and participation in design of smart solutions. Through this process, I highlight distributional injustice where children are marginalized in adult-centric cycling discourses, spaces, and smart initiatives. In making this point the review draws attention to the ways in which children are excluded because their more social and playful rationalities of cycling are not recognized in adult/ policy readings of cycling. Linked to this, I show that children’s rationalities are othered procedurally in the development of smart solutions because children are either absent, treated as data nodes, or asked to solve pre-defined problems of transport optimization. I conclude by foregrounding four elements that could contribute to what smart(er) cycling might look like from a child’s perspective: accommodating a plurality of motives with a particular emphasis on less instrumental and more convivial and playful mobilities; physical and urban infrastructures that emphasize social connection; accounting for the relative absence of technologies in children’s lives; seeking to “make children count” in (smart) decision-making processes.这篇文章旨在探讨儿童出行(尤其是骑行)与新兴的社会技术智能城市系统的交集,评估这些系统在多大程度上适应了儿童的需求。为此,文章回顾了有关儿童出行、骑行以及儿童参与智能解决方案设计的文献。通过这一过程,我突出展示了分配不公的问题,其中儿童在以成人为中心的骑行话语、空间和智能倡议中被边缘化。在这一点上,回顾强调了儿童因其更加社会化和富有玩乐性的骑行需求未被成人/政策视角所认可而被排除的方式。与此相关的是,我展示了儿童在智能解决方案开发过程中如何被程序化地其他化,因为儿童要么缺席,要么被视为数据节点,或者被要求解决预定义的交通优化问题。我总结了四个元素,可能有助于从儿童的角度理解智能(或更智能的)骑行:容纳多样化的动机,特别强调少于工具性和更多社交性及玩乐性的出行;注重社会联系的物理和城市基础设施;考虑到儿童生活中相对缺乏技术;在(智能)决策过程中力求“让儿童发声”。

Cyclists as Intelligent Carriers of Space-Time Environmental Information: Crowd-Sourced Sensor Data for Local Air Quality Measurement and Mobility Analysis in the Netherlands
骑行者作为时空环境信息的智能载体:基于众包传感器数据的荷兰本地空气质量测量与出行分析
In recent years, slow travel modes (walking, cycling) have gained much interest in the context of urban air quality management. This article presents the findings from a novel air quality measurement experiment in the Netherlands, by regarding cyclists as carriers and transmitters of real-world information on fine-grained air quality conditions. Using individual sensors on bicycles—connected to a GPS positioning system—online local pollution information originating from cyclists’ detailed spatial mobility patterns is obtained. Such air quality surface maps and cyclists’ mobility maps are then used to identify whether there are significant differences between the actual route choice and the cyclists’ shortest route choice, so as to identify the implications of poor air quality conditions for their mobility choices. Thus, the article seeks to present both a detailed pollution surface map and the complex space-time mobility patterns of cyclists in a region, on the basis of online quantitative data—at any point in time and space—from bicycle users in a given locality. In addition, the article estimates their response—in terms of route choice—to detailed air-quality information through the use of a novel geoscience-inspired analysis of space-time “big data.” The empirical test of our quantitative modeling approach was carried out for the Greater Utrecht area in the Netherlands. Our findings confirm that spatial concentration of air pollutants have great consequences for bike users’ route choice patterns, especially in the case of non-commuting trips. We also find that cyclists make longer trips on weekends and in the evenings, especially towards parks and natural amenities.近年来,慢行出行模式(步行、骑行)在城市空气质量管理的背景下引起了广泛关注。本文展示了荷兰一项新颖的空气质量测量实验的结果,该实验将骑行者视为真实世界空气质量条件的承载者和传播者。通过在自行车上安装个人传感器——连接到GPS定位系统——获取骑行者详细的空间移动模式所产生的在线本地污染信息。然后,利用这些空气质量表面图和骑行者的移动图,识别实际路线选择与骑行者的最短路线选择之间是否存在显著差异,从而识别恶劣空气质量条件对他们出行选择的影响。因此,本文旨在基于在线定量数据——来自特定地区的自行车用户——展示某个区域的详细污染表面图和骑行者的复杂时空移动模式。此外,本文通过新颖的地球科学启发分析时空“大数据”的方法,估算了骑行者对详细空气质量信息的响应——即路线选择。我们对荷兰大乌特勒支地区的定量建模方法进行了实证测试。研究结果确认,空气污染物的空间集中对自行车用户的路线选择模式有重大影响,特别是在非通勤出行的情况下。我们还发现,骑行者在周末和晚上会选择较长的出行路线,特别是前往公园和自然设施。

Investigating Digitally Inflected Intercity Cycle Commuting
探索数字化影响下的城市间自行车通勤
Multiple smart-city cycle technologies have been developed to support cycle commuting and create lower carbon cities. Such technologies hold significant potential to reshape how cycle commuting is experienced, understood, and governed. To investigate such phenomena, this article provides a rich account of digitally inflected inter-city cycle commuting. It shows how technologies including gamification elements script cycle commuting and consequently reshape cycling practices and infrastructures. As such digitally inflected cycle commuting is revealed as a complex multifaceted process of selfhood, reflexivity, embodiment, and social interaction which challenges imaginaries of mobile subjects underpinning standardized smart city transport policy prescriptions.多种智能城市自行车技术已被开发,用以支持自行车通勤并创建低碳城市。这些技术具有显著的潜力,可以重新塑造自行车通勤的体验、理解和管理方式。为了研究这些现象,本文提供了一个关于数字化城市间自行车通勤的详细描述。文章展示了包括游戏化元素在内的技术如何编排自行车通勤,从而重塑自行车实践和基础设施。因此,数字化自行车通勤被揭示为一个复杂的、多方面的自我、反思、体现和社会互动过程,这挑战了支持标准化智能城市交通政策规范的流动主体想象。

Embodied Precariat and Digital Control in the “Gig Economy”: The Mobile Labor of Food Delivery Workers
“零工经济”中的具身不稳定劳动与数字控制:外卖员的移动劳动
The promises of flexible work and instant deliveries promoted through food delivery apps are one of the latest trends within the “gig economy” and lay at the forefront of smart city agendas. This article focuses on the work undertaken by Deliveroo couriers to investigate how they embody, negotiate, and contest the “smartness” of the platform. Drawing on ethnographic research in London and Manchester, analysis of internal online communication, and interviews with workers, the article examines how competing understandings of “smartness” emerge in response to algorithmic management in the workplace. This paper conceptualizes two distinctive yet overlapping attitudes among couriers—entrepreneurialism and solidarity—and discusses their implications for the future of platform work.这篇文章关注了外卖配送员的工作,探讨了他们如何体现、协商和质疑平台的“智能”特性。文章通过在伦敦和曼彻斯特的民族志研究、对内部在线沟通的分析以及对工人的访谈,研究了在算法管理下,平台工作中的“智能”理解如何产生竞争。本文概念化了配送员中两种既有区别又有重叠的态度——企业精神和团结,并讨论了它们对平台工作的未来影响。

Playing in Traffic? Exploring the Intersection of Platforms, Agency, and Space in Bicycle Courier Mobilities
在交通中游戏?探索平台、代理和空间在自行车快递员移动性中的交集
This article explores change in the mobile geographies of bicycle courier work as a result of platform economy influences, with a focus on how agency of movement characteristic of messenger culture is maintained or altered through the use of algorithmic routing and management of the delivery process. A mixed-methods approach based in Amsterdam and Oslo uses participatory geographic Information systems (PGIS) to map bicycle couriers’ spatial preferences in their working environment; semi-structured interviews to approach mobile decision making; and (auto)ethnographic data to consider the embodiment of movement across both case studies. This article provides an updated empirical understanding of couriers’ mobile, urban geography compared with pre-platform messenger work, while examining the role of new organizational technologies on movement using a Lefebvrian spatial framework, emphasizing the gaps between spaces as exploitable by different actors in the delivery work sphere. The results show both a new, extended spatiality of bicycle-based work enabled by associated technologies, alongside both the loss and adoption of new means of appropriating urban and digital spaces resulting from algorithmic control of the delivery process.这篇文章探讨了平台经济影响下自行车快递工作移动地理的变化,重点关注消息传递文化中特有的移动自主性在算法路线规划和配送过程管理中的维持或改变。基于阿姆斯特丹和奥斯陆的混合方法研究,使用参与式地理信息系统(PGIS)来绘制自行车快递员在工作环境中的空间偏好;使用半结构化访谈来探讨移动决策;以及通过(自)民族志数据考虑两种案例研究中的运动体现。文章提供了对比于平台之前的快递工作,更新的快递员移动城市地理的实证理解,同时使用列斐伏尔空间框架检查新组织技术对运动的作用,强调了空间之间的差距作为配送工作领域中不同参与者可以利用的空间。结果显示了技术赋能的自行车工作新的扩展空间性,同时也展示了算法控制配送过程带来的城市和数字空间的新手段的丧失和采用。
