This article examines Macau as a case study for the transformation of cultural urban regeneration. Macau's commitment to preserving its Portuguese colonial heritage aligns with a cultural policy supporting urban regeneration for economic diversification. Through interviews, observations, and literature reviews, the study addresses research questions regarding changing roles of stakeholders, evolution of governance, and influence of the governance system on the outcomes of regeneration projects. Two prime examples are explored: St Lazarus neighbourhood, which has retained its colonial architectural heritage, and Taipa Village, which has transitioned into a vibrant lifestyle district. These areas have transformed into creative hubs where arts and culture are central in driving urban regeneration.
本文以澳门为个案,探讨城市文化更新的转型。澳门致力于保存葡萄牙殖民时期的遗产,同时支持城市再生,促进经济多元化。通过访谈、观察和文献综述,本研究解决了利益相关者角色的变化、治理的演变以及治理系统对再生项目结果的影响等研究问题。两个主要的例子是:St Lazarus社区保留了其殖民时期的建筑遗产,氹仔村已经转变为一个充满活力的生活方式区。这些地区已经转变为创意中心,艺术和文化是推动城市再生的核心。

This special issue showcases interdisciplinary research on the changing conditions, policies and practices of urban cultural infrastructure, offering new insights into the relationship between art, culture, policy and urban development. The collection of research articles offers empirical consideration and theoretical reflection on what might be considered an ‘infrastructural turn’ within urban and cultural policy studies that challenges previously established ideal types of urban strategies which target cultural consumption and production for value extraction. Together, they represent an attempt to move beyond the ‘creative city’ strategies that dominate this area of research but offer only vague and sometimes contradictory narratives. We aim to offer a basis for alternative discussions that are inclusive and critically sensitive to the divergence of spatial, political and economic contexts and practices within governance, statecraft and urban entrepreneurialism, to explore opportunities offered through heterodox approaches which capture the multiple narratives of urban development across global North and South.
这期特刊展示了关于城市文化基础设施变化的条件、政策和实践的跨学科研究,为艺术、文化、政策和城市发展之间的关系提供了新的见解。研究文章的集合提供了对城市和文化政策研究中可能被认为是“基础设施转向”的经验考虑和理论反思,挑战了先前建立的以文化消费和生产为目标的价值提取的理想类型的城市战略。总之,它们代表了一种尝试,超越了主导这一研究领域的“创意城市”策略,但只提供了模糊的、有时是相互矛盾的叙述。我们的目标是为其他讨论提供一个基础,这些讨论对空间、政治和经济背景以及治理、治国方术和城市创业精神中的实践差异具有包容性和批判性的敏感性,以探索通过非正统方法提供的机会,这些方法捕捉了全球南北城市发展的多种叙事。

Between local heritage and global aesthetics: Bourdieusian perspectives on Tehran's cafés 在地方遗产与全球美学之间:德黑兰咖啡馆的布尔迪厄主义观点
Q1 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2026-01-06 DOI: 10.1016/j.ccs.2026.100688

This article explores the recent proliferation of cafés in central Tehran. Drawing on Pierre Bourdieu's concepts of field, habitus, and cultural capital, in dialogue with theories of glocalization and cultural hybridization, the study analyzes how these cafés function not merely as consumption venues but as hybrid cultural fields. Based on ethnographic fieldwork—including interviews, observations, and visual analysis of 18 cafés—the research reveals that these spaces enable middle- and upper-middle-class youth to perform social distinction through hybrid tastes and symbolic practices that blend local heritage with global aesthetics. While established in repurposed historic buildings, these cafés incorporate digital tools, cosmopolitan design, and layered sensory experiences, allowing patrons to express aspirational cosmopolitanism without rejecting Iranian cultural codes. The study contributes to the literature by extending Bourdieu's nationally grounded theory to global urban contexts, introducing the concept of glocal cultural capital, and theorizing cafés as key infrastructures of hybrid cultural production and symbolic urban change. Ultimately, it argues that trendy cafés in Tehran are not ideologically neutral spaces, but socially selective fields where modernity, refinement, and cultural belonging are continually negotiated.
这篇文章探讨了最近在德黑兰市中心咖啡馆的扩散。本研究借鉴皮埃尔·布迪厄的场域、惯习和文化资本的概念,结合全球本土化和文化杂交理论,分析了这些咖啡厅不仅作为消费场所,而且作为混合文化场域的功能。基于人种学的田野调查——包括访谈、观察和对18个cafims的视觉分析——研究表明,这些空间使中上层中产阶级的年轻人能够通过混合品味和象征性实践来表现社会地位,将当地遗产与全球美学相结合。这些咖啡馆建立在改造的历史建筑中,结合了数字工具、世界主义设计和分层的感官体验,让顾客在不拒绝伊朗文化规范的情况下表达理想的世界主义。本研究将布迪厄的国家基础理论扩展到全球城市语境,引入了全球地方文化资本的概念,并将咖啡作为混合文化生产和象征性城市变化的关键基础设施进行了理论化。最后,它认为德黑兰时髦的咖啡馆不是意识形态中立的空间,而是社会选择性的领域,在这里,现代性、精致性和文化归属不断得到协商。

Neo-artisans ‘Out of Town’: Motivations and contradictions in non-urban neo-craft work 新工匠“出城”:非城市新工艺作品的动机与矛盾
Q1 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2025-12-24 DOI: 10.1016/j.ccs.2025.100686
Marta Tonetta, Alessandro Gandini
Calls to ‘disconnect from work’ have become increasingly prominent in recent years. Within this framework, neo-craft occupations emerged as an attractive option for workers in search of meaningful work. While these have been primarily investigated as an urban phenomenon, less is known about neo-craft activities located outside the city and in non-urban settings. Based on large-scale qualitative research in the European Union, this article illustrates the motivations and contradictions that underpin the mobility and work trajectories of a set of neo-artisans who have decided to live and work away from large international cities. We show that, for them, spatial dislocations and mobility strategies are part of the same ‘good life’ project, and argue that neo-craft work should be seen as an example of ‘disconnection from work’ with a spatial component that is symptomatic of a cultural shift in the way work and its meaning are collectively imagined. Crucially, however, this is shaped by conditions of privilege and possibility, which do not merely affect individual choices but fundamentally distinguish those who can afford to undertake this lifestyle change from those who cannot.
近年来,“远离工作”的呼声日益高涨。在这个框架下,新工艺职业成为寻找有意义工作的工人的一个有吸引力的选择。虽然这些主要是作为一种城市现象进行调查,但人们对城市以外和非城市环境中的新工艺活动知之甚少。基于在欧盟进行的大规模定性研究,本文阐述了一群决定远离国际大都市生活和工作的新工匠的流动性和工作轨迹背后的动机和矛盾。我们表明,对他们来说,空间错位和流动性策略是同一个“美好生活”项目的一部分,并认为新工艺作品应被视为“与工作脱节”的一个例子,其空间成分是工作方式及其意义集体想象的文化转变的症状。然而,至关重要的是,这是由特权和可能性条件决定的,这不仅影响个人的选择,而且从根本上区分了那些有能力承担这种生活方式改变的人与那些没有能力承担这种生活方式改变的人。

The ambient office: Remote work and the post-digital downtown 环境办公室:远程工作和后数字化的市中心
Q1 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2025-12-05 DOI: 10.1016/j.ccs.2025.100673
Erika Polson
In many United States cities, a rise in remote work is blamed for an ‘office apocalypse,’ with dire news reports claiming downtown districts are in a ‘death spiral.’ As a reaction to the normalization of digitalized remote work, many cities are responding to the spatial consequences of digital mobilities by trying to make themselves more attractive to new publics. Although this includes plans to convert offices to apartments, for the most part planners continue to view the office as a fixed location that will become more attractive if people live near it. This paper suggests cities should recognize how knowledge workers touristify the workday, seeking to blend work and leisure across urban space. Based on reviews of scholarship and market reports about central office districts and remote work, theories of branding and atmospheres, and a ‘scenario’ developed through interviews with planners from multiple cities alongside observations of remote work in Denver, Colorado, the article suggests the office maintains a significant role in downtowns in its post-digital—its ambient—form.
在美国许多城市,远程办公的兴起被认为是“办公室末日”的罪魁祸首,可怕的新闻报道称,市中心地区正处于“死亡螺旋”之中。“作为对数字化远程工作常态化的回应,许多城市正试图通过提高自身对新公众的吸引力来应对数字化移动带来的空间后果。”虽然这包括将办公室改造成公寓的计划,但在大多数情况下,规划者仍将办公室视为一个固定的地点,如果人们住在附近,它将变得更有吸引力。本文建议城市应该认识到知识工作者如何旅游工作日,寻求在城市空间中融合工作和休闲。基于对中央办公区和远程办公的学术研究和市场报告、品牌和氛围理论的回顾,以及通过对多个城市的规划者的采访和对科罗拉多州丹佛市远程工作的观察得出的“情景”,这篇文章表明,在后数字化时代,办公室在市中心保持着重要的作用。

Cultural identity and creative labour of mobile artists: A narrative review of Jing Piao community in Jingdezhen 流动艺术家的文化认同与创作劳动:景德镇景漂社区的叙事回顾
Q1 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2025-11-19 DOI: 10.1016/j.ccs.2025.100675
Diying Cai , Zitong Zhan
Jingdezhen porcelain culture, renowned for its long history and exquisite craftsmanship, has long attracted ceramic enthusiasts and contributed to the development of local art and culture. While much of the existing literature emphasizes the role of the government, experts, and ceramic masters, this review article turns its attention to the contributions of grassroots groups, particularly the little-studied ‘Jing Piao’ group, in shaping urban ceramic art culture. This article explores the engagement of the ‘Jing Piao’ ceramic community in Jingdezhen through three themes: (1) a historical perspective on the cultural identity of ‘Jing Piao’, (2) the impact of the creative labour of the ‘Jing Piao’ group on local ceramic culture and markets, and (3) Intermediaries’ practices in bridging ‘Jing Piao’ and the local ceramic community. This study examines how ‘Jing Piao’ contributes to Jingdezhen’s cultural and industrial regeneration through their evolving identity and creative labor. While promoting ceramic renaissance and globalization, their influence raises challenges regarding cultural ethics, craft valuation, and sustainability.
景德镇陶瓷文化以其悠久的历史和精湛的工艺而闻名,长期吸引着陶瓷爱好者,为当地艺术文化的发展做出了贡献。虽然现有文献大多强调政府、专家和陶瓷大师的作用,但这篇综述文章将注意力转向基层群体,特别是很少被研究的“井漂”群体,在塑造城市陶瓷艺术文化方面的贡献。本文通过三个主题探讨景德镇“景漂”陶瓷社区的参与情况:(1)“景漂”文化认同的历史视角;(2)“景漂”群体的创造性劳动对当地陶瓷文化和市场的影响;(3)中介机构在“景漂”与当地陶瓷社区之间的桥梁实践。本研究考察了“景漂”如何通过其不断演变的身份和创造性劳动为景德镇的文化和工业复兴做出贡献。在推动陶瓷复兴和全球化的同时,他们的影响也对文化伦理、工艺价值和可持续性提出了挑战。

Sustainability challenges for social enterprises in cultural and creative sectors - A case study of IMPACD CIC 社会企业在文化及创意领域的可持续发展挑战-以IMPACD CIC为例
Q1 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2025-11-15 DOI: 10.1016/j.ccs.2025.100676
Fanyu Zhang, Helen Kennedy
This research explores the sustainability challenges of social enterprises in the cultural and creative sectors, focusing on IMPACD CIC, a grassroots creative organisation in Nottingham, UK. Operating at the intersection of CCIs and social enterprise, such organisations navigate tensions between financial sustainability and social or cultural missions. Existing literature often oversimplifies this conflict, emphasises commercial activity in large organisations, and overlooks the contributions of smaller arts-based enterprises. Using IMPACD as a case study, the research examines challenges including inadequate funding, undervalued creative labour, displacement, and policy misalignments, alongside commitments to inclusion and community engagement. Despite these obstacles, IMPACD employs arts-based practices to combat social exclusion, inequality, and loneliness, demonstrating the potential of creative social enterprises to address marginalisation. While they cannot fully dismantle systemic exclusion, these organisations raise awareness and offer tangible support to marginalised communities. The study highlights the need for greater support and recognition, advocating policies and financial frameworks that enable creative social enterprises to expand their social and cultural impact, contributing to sustainable and inclusive urban environments.
本研究探讨了社会企业在文化和创意领域的可持续发展挑战,重点关注英国诺丁汉的草根创意组织IMPACD CIC。在cci和社会企业的交叉点上运作,这些组织在财务可持续性和社会或文化使命之间的紧张关系中导航。现有文献往往过分简化了这种冲突,强调大型组织的商业活动,而忽略了小型艺术企业的贡献。该研究以IMPACD作为案例研究,考察了包括资金不足、创造性劳动被低估、流离失所和政策错位在内的挑战,以及对包容和社区参与的承诺。尽管存在这些障碍,IMPACD采用基于艺术的实践来对抗社会排斥、不平等和孤独,展示了创造性社会企业解决边缘化问题的潜力。虽然它们不能完全消除系统性排斥,但这些组织提高了人们的认识,并为边缘化社区提供了切实的支持。该研究强调需要更多的支持和认可,倡导政策和金融框架,使创造性社会企业能够扩大其社会和文化影响,为可持续和包容性的城市环境做出贡献。

Graffiti gaze. The writers looking at urban territory and its places 涂鸦的目光。作家们关注城市的疆域和地域
Q1 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2025-11-14 DOI: 10.1016/j.ccs.2025.100674
Carlo Genova
This article investigates how graffiti writers perceive, interpret and use urban space. Drawing on qualitative interviews with writers conducted in Italy, it proposes and substantiates the notion of a distinctive “graffiti gaze”: a situated way of seeing that reworks both individual places and the city as a whole. Place selection is guided by four criteria – materiality of surfaces, visibility, architectural accessibility and social accessibility – combined through search strategies that include vigilant everyday observation, targeted exploration (including virtual surveys) and exchanges of information within social networks. The practice generates evolving mental maps composed of painted spots, prospective sites and preferred routes, which anchor personal memories and scene infrastructures. The findings refine the analogy with the “skater's eye” and “parkour vision”, showing family resemblances yet outlining specificities of writing.

本文探讨了涂鸦作家如何感知、解读和利用城市空间。通过对意大利作家的定性采访,它提出并证实了一种独特的“涂鸦凝视”的概念:一种重新审视个人场所和整个城市的定位方式。地点选择以四个标准为指导——表面的物质性、可见性、建筑可达性和社会可达性——结合搜索策略,包括警惕的日常观察、有针对性的探索(包括虚拟调查)和社交网络中的信息交换。这种做法产生了不断演变的心理地图,由绘制的地点、潜在地点和首选路线组成,这些地图锚定了个人记忆和场景基础设施。研究结果完善了“滑冰者的眼睛”和“跑酷者的视觉”的类比,显示了家庭的相似性,但概述了写作的特殊性。在不破坏共享模式的前提下,对不同城市的比较一瞥凸显了竞争环境、形态和制度安排的差异。然后,文章提供了新的见解,非传统的空间使用如何挑战城市领土的主导观念,并有助于其重新意义。

Drawing on qualitative interviews with writers conducted in Italy, it proposes and substantiates the notion of a distinctive “graffiti gaze”: a situated way of seeing that reworks both individual places and the city as a whole. Place selection is guided by four criteria – materiality of surfaces, visibility, architectural accessibility and social accessibility – combined through search strategies that include vigilant everyday observation, targeted exploration (including virtual surveys) and exchanges of information within social networks. The practice generates evolving mental maps composed of painted spots, prospective sites and preferred routes, which anchor personal memories and scene infrastructures. The findings refine the analogy with the “skater's eye” and “parkour vision”, showing family resemblances yet outlining specificities of writing. Comparative glimpses across cities highlight variations in competitive climates, morphologies and institutional arrangements, without undermining shared patterns.
