Abstract

ABSTRACT The photographs that fill the pages of the Australian illustrated magazines The Home and Decoration and Glass offer new insights into the connections between urban development and citizenship in 1930s Sydney. This article focuses on two sites in which urban citizenship was represented and contested in these magazines: symbolic images of white Australian construction workers as builders of the nation, and debates about the lived experience of urban citizenship associated with the rise in flat construction. The multivocal quality of these illustrated magazines provides a means of addressing the complex interconnections between the built environment and cultural conceptions of citizenship. Examining work in and for these illustrated magazines shows that citizenship was neither understood nor lived as a fixed status defined and conferred by the state, but a contested series of values, obligations and modes of social participation.

建构公民:20世纪30年代澳大利亚设计杂志中的劳工、城市发展与公民
澳大利亚插画杂志《家庭、装饰和玻璃》上的照片为20世纪30年代悉尼的城市发展和公民之间的联系提供了新的视角。本文关注的是城市公民身份在这些杂志中被代表和争议的两个地点:澳大利亚白人建筑工人作为国家建设者的象征性形象,以及关于城市公民身份与扁平建筑兴起相关的生活经验的辩论。这些插图杂志的多声音特性提供了一种解决建筑环境和公民文化概念之间复杂相互联系的手段。通过对这些插图杂志的研究表明,公民身份既不是作为一种由国家定义和授予的固定地位来理解和生活的,而是一系列有争议的价值观、义务和社会参与模式。
