Discussion of gentrification is ubiquitous in cities around the world. And while criticism of it is common, there is still considerable contestation over whether gentrification is unjust. Political theorists have recently turned their attention to the normative evaluation of gentrification, especially the displacement of long-term residents from neighbourhoods experiencing redevelopment and reinvestment. Two important limitations in this recent work are, first, a narrow focus on the link between gentrification and displacement, and second, the injustice of gentrification has been evaluated in light of abstract ideals of justice divorced from the lived experience of its harms. Although the emerging literature usefully identifies some of the harms of gentrification, it fails to recognise the full extent of the injustice of gentrification. To address these limitations, I argue the normative evaluation of gentrification should start with a conceptualisation of the problem grounded in the experience of its negative effects. Further, employing a more comprehensive conceptualisation of gentrification’s negative effects reveals it to be a distinctive and encompassing urban injustice better understood by examining how gentrification is defined by harmful inequalities of political power, leading to exploitation, dispossession, displacement, marginalisation, and violence.
在世界各地的城市里,关于中产阶级化的讨论无处不在。虽然对中产阶级化的批评很普遍,但对于中产阶级化是否不公平,仍然存在相当大的争议。最近,政治理论家将注意力转向了对中产阶级化的规范评估,特别是长期居民从经历重建和再投资的社区流离失所的问题。在最近的研究中,有两个重要的局限性:第一,对中产阶级化和流离失所之间联系的狭隘关注;第二,中产阶级化的不公正是根据抽象的正义理想来评估的,脱离了对其危害的生活经验。尽管新兴文献有用地识别了中产阶级化的一些危害,但它未能认识到中产阶级化的不公正的全部程度。为了解决这些局限性,我认为对中产阶级化的规范评估应该从基于其负面影响的经验对问题进行概念化开始。此外,对中产阶级化的负面影响进行更全面的概念化,揭示了中产阶级化是一种独特的、包容性的城市不公正现象,通过研究政治权力的有害不平等如何定义中产阶级化,从而导致剥削、剥夺、流离失所、边缘化和暴力,可以更好地理解中产阶级化。

An Institutional Duty to Vote: Applying Role Morality in Representative Democracy 投票的制度义务:角色道德在代议制民主中的应用

Is voting a duty of democratic citizenship? This article advances a new argument for the existence of a duty to vote. It argues that every normative account of electoral representation requires universal turnout to function in line with its own internal normative logic. This generates a special obligation for citizens to vote in electoral representative contexts as a function of the role morality of democratic citizenship. Because voting uniquely authorizes office holding in representative democracies, and because universal turnout contributes powerfully to representation being fair, to be a good citizen of such democracies requires one to vote. Whereas previous arguments for a duty to vote have invoked basic moral principles like fairness or a Samaritan duty of rescue, this account is based on citizens occupying a vital functional role within electoral representative institutions. This institutional duty solves the “specificity problem” of justifying a duty to vote better than competing accounts and also immunizes the duty to objections that there is no duty to vote when there are only bad choices and that there is a no duty to vote but rather duty to vote well. By emphasizing the tight connection between institutions and individual conduct, the role morality approach used here supplies a less abstract and more realistic framework than much previous research on the ethics of democratic citizenship and brings the debate closer to constitutive features of democratic politics.
投票是民主公民的义务吗?这篇文章为投票义务的存在提出了一个新的论据。它认为,每一种对选举代表制的规范解释都要求普遍投票率符合其内在的规范逻辑。这就产生了公民在选举代表背景下投票的特殊义务,作为民主公民角色道德的功能。因为在代议制民主国家,只有投票才能授权政府任职,又因为普遍的投票率有力地促进了代表制的公平,所以要成为这样的民主国家的好公民,就必须去投票。尽管之前关于投票义务的论点援引了基本的道德原则,如公平或撒玛利亚人的救援义务,但这种说法是基于公民在选举代表机构中扮演着至关重要的职能角色。这种制度性义务比竞争性的解释更好地解决了证明投票义务的“特殊性问题”,也使投票义务免受反对意见的影响,即当只有糟糕的选择时没有投票义务,没有投票义务,但有义务投票好。通过强调制度和个人行为之间的紧密联系,这里使用的角色道德方法提供了一个比之前许多关于民主公民道德的研究更不抽象、更现实的框架,并使辩论更接近民主政治的构成特征。

An Egalitarian Case for Class-Specific Political Institutions 阶级政治制度的平等主义案例

Political theorists concerned with ways to counteract the oligarchic tendencies of representative government have recently paid more attention to the employment of “class-specific institutions” (CSIs)—that is, political institutions that formally exclude wealthy elites from decision-making power. This article disputes a general objection levelled against the justifiability of CSIs, according to which their democratic credentials are outweighed by their explicit transgression of formal political equality—what I call the political equality objection. I claim that, although CSIs do not satisfy political equality fully, their exclusionary thrust is inter alia justified in virtue of the fact that they unfold against the background of badly ordered, class-divided societies. Parallel to recent arguments in nonideal theory arguing for the priority of the right to resist economic oppression over the protection of private property rights, access to the empowering properties of CSIs should take priority over the full satisfaction of formal political equality. Yet, I also claim that the justification of CSIs depends on their orientation toward overcoming class divisions because, otherwise, we might end up wrongly naturalizing those divisions—a conclusion that needs to be avoided to reply to the political equality objection. The result is, I believe, a convincing egalitarian case for the democratic justifiability of CSIs.
关心如何对抗代议制政府的寡头倾向的政治理论家最近更加关注“特定阶级制度”(CSI)的使用,即正式将富裕精英排除在决策权之外的政治制度。这篇文章反驳了对CSI正当性的普遍反对,根据这种反对,他们的民主资格被他们明确违反形式政治平等的行为所压倒——我称之为政治平等反对。我声称,尽管CSI不能完全满足政治平等,但它们的排斥性主旨是合理的,因为它们是在秩序混乱、阶级分裂的社会背景下展开的。与最近非理想理论中主张抵抗经济压迫的权利优先于保护私有产权的论点类似,获得CSI赋予权力的财产应该优先于完全满足形式政治平等。然而,我也声称,CSI的正当性取决于他们克服阶级分歧的方向,否则,我们可能会错误地将这些分歧归化——这是一个需要避免的结论,以回应政治平等的反对意见。我相信,这一结果为CSI的民主正当性提供了一个令人信服的平等主义案例。

Spectacle, Surveillance, and the Ironies of Visual Politics in the Age of Autonomous Images 自主影像时代视觉政治的奇观、监视与反讽

Considering formative twentieth-century theories in relation to contemporary technosocial developments, this article examines ideas of spectacle and surveillance as ways of approaching visual politics. I argue that the historically important relationship between the visual and political fields is now intensifying and mutating. First discussing Guy Debord’s The Society of the Spectacle, I show how his influential approach proves inadequate to the politics of image-saturated societies. I next show how critics of imperial and racial spectacles, from Michael Rogin to Claudia Rankine and Tina Campt, provide better ways of engaging power and political contestation in the visual field. Third, I examine how Michel Foucault deployed notions of spectacle in his own work but argued for leaving the term behind, presenting surveillance as not just a different modality of power but also spectacle’s temporal successor. This account remains essential for both historical understanding and reckoning with contemporary surveillance. Fourth, however, as Simone Browne argues, Foucault’s separation between spectacle and surveillance is too stark, his history too prone to occlude race. Furthermore, recent surveillance technologies and practices have changed in ways that confound his terms, while extending and also altering the racial dynamics explored earlier in the essay. Today, even surveillance based on optical media contributes to a “postvisual” image world in which algorithmic, machine-machine communication abets forms of power neither tied to human perception nor graspable as subject formation. With surprising assistance from Debord, I end by discussing the significant theoretical and political challenges posed by the ironies of postvisual visuality.
考虑到20世纪形成性的理论与当代技术社会发展的关系,本文考察了奇观和监视作为处理视觉政治的方法。我认为,视觉和政治领域之间具有历史意义的关系现在正在加剧和变化。首先讨论Guy Debord的《奇观社会》,我展示了他有影响力的方法如何被证明不足以应对形象饱和社会的政治。接下来,我将展示从迈克尔·罗金(Michael Rogin)到克劳迪娅·兰金(Claudia Rankine)和蒂娜·坎普(Tina Campt。第三,我研究了米歇尔·福柯如何在自己的作品中运用奇观的概念,但却主张将这个词抛在脑后,将监视不仅视为一种不同的权力形式,而且视为奇观的时间继承者。这一叙述对于历史理解和对当代监控的反思仍然至关重要。然而,第四,正如西蒙·布朗所说,福柯在奇观和监视之间的分离太过明显,他的历史太容易掩盖种族。此外,最近的监控技术和做法发生了变化,混淆了他的术语,同时扩展并改变了本文早些时候探讨的种族动态。如今,即使是基于光学媒体的监控也有助于形成一个“后视觉”的图像世界,在这个世界中,算法、机器-机器通信助长了既不与人类感知挂钩,也不可作为主体形成来获取的权力形式。在德博德令人惊讶的帮助下,我最后讨论了后视觉视觉的讽刺所带来的重大理论和政治挑战。

Cruelty, Injustice, and the Liberalism of Fear 残酷、不公正与恐惧的自由主义

This article analyzes the relationship between the ideas of cruelty and injustice in Judith Shklar’s political theory. Shklar’s The Faces of Injustice is sometimes read as an instantiation of the liberalism of fear, which regards cruelty and the fear that it inspires as the summum malum. I challenge this interpretation and instead argue that her account of injustice should be read independently of her commitment to the liberalism of fear. In doing so, I show how her exploration of the faces of injustice—especially the importance she accords to passive injustice and the sense of injustice—raises important challenges for the liberal case for putting cruelty first. Although democratic attitudes and institutions constitute the best available remedy for the sense of injustice, on Shklar’s account, those who focus too much on the requirements of democratic citizenship risk treating injustice as a greater evil than cruelty, which could, in turn, facilitate cruelty and undermine liberal democracy. I conclude by suggesting that the republican-inspired theory of citizenship from The Faces of Injustice, which Shklar outlines in response to the problem of passive injustice, reflects a distinct strand of her political theory that goes beyond the more familiar defense of law-bound constitutional government associated with the liberalism of fear.
本文分析了朱迪思·施克拉政治理论中残忍与不公正思想的关系。Shklar的《不公正的面孔》有时被解读为恐惧自由主义的一个例子,它把残酷和它所激发的恐惧视为最高的邪恶。我对这种解释提出了质疑,相反,我认为她对不公正的描述应该独立于她对恐惧自由主义的承诺来解读。在此过程中,我展示了她如何探索不公正的面貌——尤其是她赋予被动不公正和不公正感的重要性——为把残酷放在首位的自由主义案例提出了重要的挑战。尽管民主的态度和制度构成了对不公正感的最佳补救措施,但在Shklar看来,那些过于关注民主公民身份要求的人有可能将不公正视为比残忍更大的邪恶,这反过来可能助长残忍并破坏自由民主。我的结论是,Shklar在回应被动不公正的问题时概述了《不公正的面貌》中受共和党启发的公民权理论,反映了她的政治理论的一个独特的方面,超越了人们更熟悉的与恐惧自由主义相关的受法律约束的宪政政府的辩护。

Revisiting Tocqueville’s American Woman 重温托克维尔的《美国女人》
IF 1.4 2区 社会学 Q2 POLITICAL SCIENCE Pub Date : 2023-04-28 DOI: 10.1177/00905917231167092
C. Henderson
This paper revisits Tocqueville’s famous portrait of the American female, which begins with assertions of her equality to males but ends with her self-cloistering in the domestic sphere. Taking a cue from Tocqueville’s extended sketch of the “faded” pioneer wife in “A Fortnight in the Wilderness” and drawing connections to Tocqueville’s criticisms of the division of industrial labor, I argue that the American girl’s ostensibly free choice to remove herself from public life is not an act of freedom. Rather, it is a manifestation of a particular type of unfreedom that reveals underappreciated connections between the two great dangers about which Democracy in America warns: tyrannical majoritarianism and soft despotism. My argument that the girl’s choice to withdraw from public life is coerced rather than free thus highlights the nonpolitical sources of oppression that exist within democratic societies. The paper concludes by raising questions about the need for coercion within Tocquevillian democracy and the implications of this for Tocqueville’s “new” political science—indeed, for his liberalism more generally.
本文重新审视了托克维尔著名的美国女性肖像,这幅肖像以她与男性平等的主张开始,但以她在家庭领域的自我封闭结束。从托克维尔在《荒野中的堡垒》中对“褪色”的先锋妻子的延伸素描中得到启示,并将其与托克维尔对工业劳动分工的批评联系起来,我认为美国女孩表面上自由地选择退出公共生活并不是一种自由行为。相反,这是一种特殊类型的不自由主义的表现,揭示了美国民主所警告的两大危险之间被低估的联系:专制多数主义和软专制主义。我认为女孩选择退出公共生活是被迫的,而不是自由的,这突出了民主社会中存在的压迫的非政治来源。论文最后提出了关于托克维尔民主内部胁迫的必要性的问题,以及这对托克维尔的“新”政治学的影响——事实上,对他的自由主义的影响。

Book Review: Reckoning: Black Lives Matter and the Democratic Necessity of Social Movements, by Deva R. Woodly 书评:《清算:黑人的生命很重要和社会运动的民主必要性》,作者:德瓦·r·伍德利

Erica Townsend-Bell
Deva Woodly’s Reckoning is a deep and illuminating dive into the Movement for Black Lives (M4BL)1 and the shifts in worldview philosophy and future visioning it promotes. It is a difficult book to review because Woodly has done such a masterful job at examining and analyzing the movement itself, its contribution to American Politics specifically, and democracy broadly. But try I will. The big-picture contribution of the book is outlined within the subtitle. At base, Woodly’s argument is that social movements are a necessary and recurring condition of democracy, and an essential part of the democratic apparatus. They are democratic institutions in their own right, and thus it is impossible to offer a full theorization of democracy that does not account for them. In this understanding, movements offer three principal functions— antidote, imagination, and re/politicization. First, the antidote. Movements make apparent the inaccuracies of the interest group pluralism model, and join the extensive set of entities that underscore the point that the powers of voice, inclusion, and representation are not enough.

Deva Woodly的《清算》深入而富有启发性地探讨了黑人生命运动(M4BL)1及其所推动的世界观哲学和未来愿景的转变。这是一本很难回顾的书,因为Woodly在审视和分析这场运动本身,特别是它对美国政治和广泛民主的贡献方面做得非常出色。但我会尽力的。这本书的总体贡献在副标题中概述。基本上,Woodly的论点是,社会运动是民主的必要和反复出现的条件,也是民主机构的重要组成部分。它们本身就是民主机构,因此不可能提供不考虑它们的民主的完整理论。在这种理解中,运动提供了三个主要功能——解药、想象和重新政治化。首先是解药。运动表明了利益集团多元化模式的不准确性,并加入了一系列广泛的实体,这些实体强调了声音、包容性和代表性的力量是不够的。重要的是,他们不接受系统性不平等的事实,认为这是不可改变的现状,而是认为这些问题需要从改革到切除等一系列干预。在这样做的过程中,各运动推翻了人们普遍认为的现代政治的绝望镜头,并提出了公共生活应该是什么样子的新概念。这是富有想象力的组成部分,1165686 PTXXXX10.1177/00905917231165686政治理论书评书评2023
{"title":"Book Review: Reckoning: Black Lives Matter and the Democratic Necessity of Social Movements, by Deva R. Woodly","authors":"Erica Townsend-Bell","doi":"10.1177/00905917231165686","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1177/00905917231165686","url":null,"abstract":"Deva Woodly’s Reckoning is a deep and illuminating dive into the Movement for Black Lives (M4BL)1 and the shifts in worldview philosophy and future visioning it promotes. It is a difficult book to review because Woodly has done such a masterful job at examining and analyzing the movement itself, its contribution to American Politics specifically, and democracy broadly. But try I will. The big-picture contribution of the book is outlined within the subtitle. At base, Woodly’s argument is that social movements are a necessary and recurring condition of democracy, and an essential part of the democratic apparatus. They are democratic institutions in their own right, and thus it is impossible to offer a full theorization of democracy that does not account for them. In this understanding, movements offer three principal functions— antidote, imagination, and re/politicization. First, the antidote. Movements make apparent the inaccuracies of the interest group pluralism model, and join the extensive set of entities that underscore the point that the powers of voice, inclusion, and representation are not enough. Importantly, they do not accept the fact of systemic inequities as unchangeable status quo, but rather see these as problems in need of intervention on a spectrum ranging from reform to excision. In doing so, movements push back on the lens of despair through which modern politics is commonly viewed, and raise new notions of what public life should look like.
