Abstract

We investigate trade fairs as markets. We combine literature on temporary clusters and that on the geography of markets and describe how the particular knowledge ecologies at trade fairs are enhanced by market devices. Our framework distinguishes the following three kinds of market devices: physical arrangements, judgement devices and prosthetic prices. Using this framework, we compare market constructions before, during and after three fairs for contemporary art in Basel. Our study presents the following findings. Firstly, the limited time and space at trade fairs lead to a proliferation of market devices. Secondly, different equipment with market devices leads to a hierarchy of fairs. Thirdly, trade fairs at the top of this hierarchy generate market devices for other temporary markets and thus contribute to the development of a uniform global market.

临时市场:三个巴塞尔艺术博览会的市场设备和估价过程

我们把交易会作为市场来调查。我们将关于临时集群的文献与关于市场地理的文献结合起来，并描述了市场设备如何增强展销会中的特定知识生态。我们的框架区分了以下三种市场机制:物理安排机制、判断机制和假价格机制。利用这一框架，我们比较了三次巴塞尔当代艺术博览会之前、期间和之后的市场结构。我们的研究提出了以下发现。首先，展销会的时间和空间有限，导致市场手段泛滥。其次，不同的市场设备导致交易会的等级。第三，在这一层次结构的顶端的贸易展览会为其他临时市场创造了市场设备，从而促进了统一的全球市场的发展。

期刊介绍： Environment and Planning A: Economy and Space is a pluralist and heterodox journal of economic research, principally concerned with questions of urban and regional restructuring, globalization, inequality, and uneven development. International in outlook and interdisciplinary in spirit, the journal is positioned at the forefront of theoretical and methodological innovation, welcoming substantive and empirical contributions that probe and problematize significant issues of economic, social, and political concern, especially where these advance new approaches. The horizons of Economy and Space are wide, but themes of recurrent concern for the journal include: global production and consumption networks; urban policy and politics; race, gender, and class; economies of technology, information and knowledge; money, banking, and finance; migration and mobility; resource production and distribution; and land, housing, labor, and commodity markets. To these ends, Economy and Space values a diverse array of theories, methods, and approaches, especially where these engage with research traditions, evolving debates, and new directions in urban and regional studies, in human geography, and in allied fields such as socioeconomics and the various traditions of political economy.
