REMAKING MOSCOW: NEW PLACES,NEW SELVES*

ABSTRACT. The erratic course of the “transition” in Russia today undermines hope for the establishment of a genuine democracy supported by institutions of civil society. The West must accept that the outcome of the transition is unknown. Whether public space is emerging where the practices of civil society have been able to take root is not clear at the moment. However, important transitions in daily life and everyday places are occurring, especially as a result of consumerism. If public space does take shape, it will have to be rooted in Moscow's new places. This study draws on the conceptual framework of Robert David Sack in an exploration of changes in places and selves in Moscow.

国际都会·文化名城——论广州城市形象

随着广州市城市建设的发展,当今广州的城市形象可以定位为国际都会、文化名城,体现在繁荣的经济、便捷的交通、优越的商务环境、比较富裕的生活水平、历史文化名城、现代城市风貌、岭南文化等.广州至2010年将基本实现现代化,按此目标,塑造国际都会、文化名城的城市形象,尚有较大差距.     

DELIMITING THE PHYSICAL CITY: DISPARITIES BETWEEN VARIOUS METHODS OF CALCULATING POPULATION DENSITIES*

The legal city and the urbanized area fail to depict accurately the physical area of urban development and therefore prevent an accurate calculation of population densities. When underbounding occurs, densities tend to be unrealistically high and with overbounding they are low. Delimitations made by air photo interpretation demonstrate that the physical city, measured on a 21/2 acre scale of generalization, provides a more accurate basis for calculating population densities of urban areas than either the legal city or urbanized area because the bounding problems are eliminated.     

曲靖罕见夏秋冬连旱天气分析

利用1951～2009年沾益测站的降水资料以及NCEP/NCARR的月平均气象场再分析资料分析了2009～2010年曲靖严重干旱天气成因。采用Z指数对曲靖秋冬春连旱异常年份进行划分,表明2009年是夏秋冬连旱最严重的年份。并通过分析曲靖历史上夏秋冬降水偏少年和偏多年的500 hPa高度距平场差值场来为2009年严重的连旱天气提供成因分析,认为:冷空气和偏南气流异常是造成曲靖降水正负异常的成因。2009年夏秋冬季环流与历史上旱年同期的中高纬槽脊强弱分布形势并不一致。从夏季到冬季,贝加尔湖附近位势高度经历了从偏高到异常偏低的变化,孟加拉湾到西太平洋的环流场位势高度持续性异常偏高,暖湿气流缺乏,即使北方有冷空气南下,由于云南下沉运动较常年明显偏强,冷空气也无法与水汽汇合,水汽输送少是产生持续气象干旱的关键原因。     

论建设生态城市的立足点

昆明市城中铁路改造城市轻轨探索

城市轻轨已经是世界城市公共交通发展的一个主要方向,也是许多城市解决交通问题的一个有效手段。昆明作为云南省的省会,也是中国的特大城市之一,随着人口的增加,交通拥挤和居民出行不便已经严重制约了城市的发展。昆明拥有几段即将废弃的城中铁路,大部分位于一环路外围,改造城中铁路为城市轨道交通,将有利于昆明城市的可持续发展。基于此,通过对昆明市城中铁路现状的分析,结合昆明实际情况和国内外实践经验,权衡昆明市米轨铁路改造成轻轨的利弊,进而提出几种改造方案。

FROM EXCLUSIONARY COVENANT TO ETHNIC HYPERDIVERSITY IN JACKSON HEIGHTS,QUEENS*

ABSTRACT. When Edward MacDougall of the Queensboro Realty Company originally envisioned and developed Jackson Heights in Queens, New York in the early twentieth century, he intended it to be an exclusive suburban community for white, nonimmigrant Protestants within a close commute of Midtown Manhattan. He could not have anticipated the 1929 stock market crash, the subsequent real estate market collapse, or the change in immigration policies and patterns after the 19505. This case study examines how housing and public transportation infrastructure intended to prevent ethnic diversity laid the foundation for one of the most diverse middle‐class immigrant neighborhoods in the United States.

MYTHOLOGIES OF THE GRID IN THE EMPIRE CITY, 1811–2011*

In this article, I examine the performative dimensions of historical narration as a form of modern mythmaking by reconsidering conventional narratives on the “origins” of Manhattan's grid street plan of 1811. The historical mythology of the grid espoused in canonical readings of the Plan of 1811 relies extensively on a rearticulation of the official explanation that the grid's designers provided in a foundational text known as the “Commissioners’ Remarks”. I argue that such accounts result in an extraordinarily narrow and formulaic interpretation of the utilitarian motives and intentions behind the city's grid plan, one that reinforces a form of “morphological essentialism”. To support this argument, I shift the focus of attention beyond the “Commissioners’ Remarks” in order to complicate readings of the intentionality that gave rise to the 1811 street plan. I conclude by suggesting that the mythic search for the “origins” of the grid in the realm of founding intentions can most effectively be challenged by drawing attention to the proliferation of countermyths of gridded space.     

MEDITERRANEAN THINKING: FROM NETIZEN TO MEDIZEN*

ABSTRACT. The Mediterranean has traditionally been approached from a geographical and historical perspective that has collapsed the material and political differences between water and land. This conflation has been instrumental in homogenizing the diversity of this interregional arena and turning it into a geopolitical area. Aquacentric thinking brings such approaches to the Mediterranean into question. Cybertheory, which despatializes interaction and helps us think of water as place, is applied to the Mediterranean to bring its multiplicity into dialogue and to explore the possibility of creating a new epistemology of place. Mediter-raneanizing cybertheory introduces diachronicity into theories of simultaneity.

元代广州作为建制城市的历史地理初探

本文从城市的建城和建制关系出发，阐述广州在从秦到唐宋等朝代建需基础上，于元代设置广州录事司，是一个与县同级的行政区域和市政管理机构，此即广州作为建制城市之始，并在城市性质，结构和功能上反映广州这种变化，是广州城市发展史上一个里程碑，值得重视。     

GLOBAL AND LOCAL CHANGE ON THE PORT‐CITY WATERFRONT*

ABSTRACT. Successful waterfront redevelopment requires an understanding of global processes and an appreciation of the distinctiveness of port‐city locations. Waterfront revitalization occurs at the problematic and controversial interface between port function and the broader urban environment. It reflects varied forces and trends, involves community attitudes and environmental sensitivities, and influences transport evolution and urban change. The revitalization phenomenon is examined using community attitudes in Canada and urban regeneration in East Africa to illustrate retrospective and prospective dimensions.     

四川省华蓥市城镇体系结构研究

在分析华蓥市城镇体系的等级规模结构、职能结构、空间结构现状的基础上，找出制约华蓥市城镇体系发展的主要问题是中心城镇凝聚力不强，城镇彼此联系不密切；城镇体系结构初具形态，但不够完善；城镇体系职能等级结构松散，缺少有序的分工协作；城镇发展迅速，但呈现出无序的状况，空间分布零散。针对这些问题提出了城镇体系结构调整的具体方案和完善城镇体系结构的措施，使华蓥市城镇能够形成规模等级结构层次分明、职能分工明确、空间分布合理的城镇体系结构，实现华蓥市城市的可持续发展。     

昆明市"城中村"问题及改造对策研究--以盘龙区东庄村为例

随着昆明市城市化进程的加快和行政区划的重新调整,城市辐射功能增强,城市空间急剧扩展,使原来的城市边缘区域为中心区所包围,形成大片“城中村”。昆明市“城中村”改造涉及范围广、数量大、人口多,缺少可以置换的土地,改造成本巨大。以昆明市最大的“城中村”——东庄村改造为个案,通过实地调查、访谈和文献法,分析昆明市“城中村”的现状、问题和成因,并认为应尽快分阶段进行改造。在改造中,应从昆明市目前的社会经济情况出发,根据不同类型,选择实施以开发商为主体和以村民为主体的不同改造模式。同时,政府应加强监督与协调,尽早制定“城中村”改造的地方政策和法规,编制统一、科学的规划,积极协调和平衡村民、村集体和开发商之间的利益冲突,保护村民的利益不受侵害,并通过职业培训、社区服务、社会保障等措施解决村民的生计,转变他们的思想观念、生活方式,使其真正融入现代社会。
