ABSTRACT The petroleumscape has been comprehensively studied downstream from refineries to the retail and administrative footprints of oil space that are generally related to urban agglomeration. Upstream, however, there is less analysis of onshore oil’s origins, typically located in the hinterland and associated with rural areas. This article elaborates on the concept of the petroleumscape in oil and gas extractive areas, which are perceived and conceived of as non-urban, as a nonetheless urban phenomenon. It employs the lens of planetary urbanization by using the term ‘urban fabric’. To illustrate how the urban fabric was produced, appropriated, and contested, the Cepu region and its oil mining were analyzed using previous studies, secondary documents, and news. The results show that the Cepu petroleumscape is a blurred capitalist urban fabric determined by local social and political processes.

veiled. In this sense, Non-Design is a substantial critical work, indicting the theories that shape current, dominant practices, doctrines, and understandings in architecture, urban design, and planning. Readers will not fail to identify the fingerprints of Hayek in contemporary architecture and urban approaches such as parametricism, complex cities, localism, and tactical urbanism, which argue for a diminished role for the designer and government in processes of urban development and design, and too often conflate democracy or popularity with the market.
戴面纱的。从这个意义上说,《非设计》是一部重要的批判性著作,它指出了在建筑、城市设计和规划领域塑造当前主流实践、理论和理解的理论。读者在当代建筑和城市方法(如参数化、复杂城市、地方主义和战术城市主义)中都能识别出哈耶克的指纹,这些方法主张在城市发展和设计过程中减少设计师和政府的作用,并经常将民主或受欢迎程度与市场混为一谈。

Holy green: silwan, design knowledge, and the 1967 making of Jerusalem's Old City Walls National Park 神圣的绿色:西尔万、设计知识和1967年耶路撒冷古城墙国家公园的建造

ABSTRACT One of the most volatile sites in Jerusalem is the Palestinian neighbourhood of Silwan, at the heart of which lies the City of David archeological site. Much scholarship focuses on the contemporary tensions that arise from its two contradictory identities: an East Jerusalem Palestinian residential community and a Jewish symbol of a mythical past. This article, by contrast, explores a largely overlooked historical moment that has been key to the shaping of these dynamics: the declaration within merely six weeks after the 1967 war of an Israeli national park around the Old City Walls. The article explores how an unrealized British colonial plan for a green belt around the historic walls of Jerusalem was updated in 1967 by Israeli landscape architects using cutting-edge North American environmentalist ideas. Their blueprint, we argue, was crucial to the shaping of the ‘holy basin’s’ spatial logic, landscape imaginaries, and legal structures, necessary to understand the current turn of events. In this process, we highlight the centrality of incorporating longer-term perspectives in the study of contemporary urban realities, bringing into closer dialogue scholarship on present-day urbanism with historical studies of planning and cities.
耶路撒冷最不稳定的地点之一是巴勒斯坦人居住的西尔万地区,该地区的中心是大卫城考古遗址。许多学者关注的是它的两个相互矛盾的身份所引起的当代紧张局势:一个是东耶路撒冷的巴勒斯坦居民社区,一个是犹太人神话般的过去的象征。相比之下,这篇文章探讨了一个在很大程度上被忽视的历史时刻,它对这些动态的形成至关重要:1967年战争结束后仅六周内,以色列就宣布在老城墙周围建立一个国家公园。这篇文章探讨了1967年,以色列景观设计师如何利用北美先进的环保主义思想,对耶路撒冷历史城墙周围的绿色带进行更新,这是一个未实现的英国殖民计划。我们认为,他们的蓝图对于塑造“神圣盆地”的空间逻辑、景观想象和法律结构至关重要,对于理解当前事件的转变是必要的。在这个过程中,我们强调了将长期视角纳入当代城市现实研究的中心地位,将当今城市主义的学术研究与规划和城市的历史研究进行更密切的对话。

scientists and planners, that the only possible path to transformation was through political radicalization. While planners and urban experts would not refrain from urban planning ideals, dependency theory provided a framework to explain that the reformist resolution to urban contradictions was impossible. Cuba, isolated from the rest of Pan-American organizations and debates on urban planning, provided a space of solace, even when the Cuban Revolution preceded the political radicalization of Chile: the overarching authority of the revolutionary Cuban state and its control over land tenure and property became a refuge for those thinkers still committed to planning as a tool for economic development and growth. The book’s third part analyses three critical Latin American intellectuals in the definition of the Latin American City as a historical and cultural construction: José Luis Romero, Richard Morse, and Angel Rama. Gorelik establishes a Latin American lineage in urban history that differs from the dominant approaches from the United States or Europe. Three key figures that the English reader should recover as well. This is a fundamental book for those who work on the production and circulation of ideas on planning in the second half of the twentieth century. While Gorelik is not keen on transnational history, urban scholars working within that perspective will find a breathtaking, overarching narrative that systematizes and organizes many institutions, figures, and ideas that plagued the post-war developmental Pan-American moment. Gorelik opened this line of inquiry several years ago, and this book is the outcome of all those years of work. More than closing the debate, his book opens more questions and possible circuits of ideas and policymaking for future research.
科学家和规划者认为,实现转型的唯一可能途径是政治激进主义。虽然规划者和城市专家不会回避城市规划理想,但依赖理论提供了一个框架来解释改革派解决城市矛盾是不可能的。古巴与其他泛美组织和城市规划辩论隔绝,提供了一个慰藉的空间,即使在古巴革命先于智利政治激进主义的时候:古巴革命国家的最高权力及其对土地保有权和财产的控制成为了那些仍然致力于将规划作为经济发展和增长工具的思想家的避难所。本书的第三部分分析了三位批判拉丁美洲知识分子对拉丁美洲城市作为历史和文化建构的定义:何塞·路易斯·罗梅罗、理查德·莫尔斯和安吉尔·拉马。Gorelik在城市历史上建立了一个拉丁美洲血统,不同于美国或欧洲的主流方法。英语读者也应该恢复的三个关键数字。这是一本为那些致力于二十世纪下半叶规划思想的产生和传播的人撰写的基础性书籍。虽然戈雷利克并不热衷于跨国历史,但在这种视角下工作的城市学者会发现一种令人惊叹的、包罗万象的叙事,它将困扰战后发展的泛美时代的许多机构、人物和思想系统化和组织起来。戈雷利克几年前就开启了这条调查路线,这本书是多年工作的成果。他的书不仅结束了这场辩论,还为未来的研究打开了更多的问题和可能的思路和决策回路。

ABSTRACT A series of memorials to the throne written by Chao Cuo (200–154 B.C.), a high-ranking official of the Western Han Dynasty (206 B.C.–A.D. 24), contained systematic thoughts and methods of border city planning, and could be regarded as a valuable 2200-year-old document of planning history. Based on the textual interpretation of the classical texts, a historical analysis method that mixes theoretical construction and empirical evidence is applied to analyse the planning thoughts and methods proposed in Chao Cuo's works, including the strategic layout of human and land resources at the territorial scale, city site selection based on natural geographical conditions, multi-scale constructions of physical space from region to residence and social governance balancing people's livelihood and military affairs. The purpose of the planning system proposed by Chao Cuo was to build cites that were suitable for both military defence and people's daily lives, so that people would settle in the frontier and form a stable military force to resist enemies. Chao's works explain a typical feature of ancient Chinese city planning as an instrument of political governance, and demonstrated the interaction between urban form and way of life.
摘要西汉(公元前206年-公元24年)高官赵错(公元前200年-154年)撰写的一系列皇位奏折,包含了系统的边城规划思想和方法,堪称2200年前珍贵的规划史文献。在对经典文本进行文本解读的基础上,运用理论建构与实证相结合的历史分析方法,对赵作品中提出的规划思想和方法进行了分析,包括地域尺度上的人力和土地资源战略布局、基于自然地理条件的城市选址、,从区域到住宅的多尺度物理空间建设以及兼顾民生和军事的社会治理。赵提出的规划制度的目的是建立既适合军事防御又适合人民日常生活的城池,使人民定居边疆,形成稳定的抵御敌人的军事力量。赵的作品阐释了中国古代城市规划作为政治治理工具的一个典型特征,展示了城市形态与生活方式之间的互动关系。

Corridors as empty signifiers: the entanglement of Mozambique’s colonial past and present in its development corridors 走廊作为空洞的象征:莫桑比克的殖民历史和现在在其发展走廊的纠缠

ABSTRACT This article examines the infrastructural histories and legacies of three transnational corridors centred on the Mozambican cities of Maputo, Beira and Nacala. Underpinned by physical infrastructures, corridors were central to the extractive European colonial enterprise in Africa. Corridors facilitated the flows of resources, goods and knowledge between metropoles, African urban centres, and their hinterlands. Nowadays, corridors insert African cities and regions into global circuits of capital that perpetuate past extractive practices and policies. They are also powerful imaginary spaces for advancing political projects and developing specific configurations of government. Accordingly, the idea of a corridor may remain useful over time even as claims for their economic necessity ebb and flow. In this article, we examine the continuities between three contemporary Mozambican corridors and older colonial transitways that connected the three cities to British colonial interests in southern Africa. Then, drawing on Laclau and Mouffe’s discourse analysis, we suggest that corridors can serve as ‘empty signifiers,’ becoming linked to diverse understandings, standing for fluid yet enduring ambitions of connectivity, competitiveness, and regional integration. After scrutizing recent investments in the corridors, we reflect on their role in constructing a ‘new’ Mozambican economic order that is nevertheless deeply entangled in the country’s past.
