媒介互动下粤港澳大湾区区域空间协同的演变

基于粤港澳大湾区三地不同的媒介社会结构,以媒介、社会学交叉学科视角,创新性提出区域协同下四种维度三大类别的媒介传播框架,以此探索在“一国两制”跨界联系下和区域协同发展过程中,粤港澳大湾区社会资本的形成及区域协同演进的阶段性特点。研究发现：随着区域一体化发展加速,粤港澳三地媒介互动的维度及深度不断增强,但在“社会-文化”层面的连结型社会资本仍较为薄弱。在区域对话中,由于缺乏能贯穿粤港澳三地日常生活、适应三地民众媒介使用习惯的区域性媒介平台,粤港澳大湾区内尚未形成有效的底层监测及反馈机制,导致跨界空间联系项目中社会成本高企。以媒介及社会学等交叉学科视角,探索区域空间协同实践中媒介传播状况和社会资本的形成机制,有助于促进湾区建立更为灵活有效的对话机制,来回应区域民生需求,提升区域协同效率,以及推动区域共识的达成。

Transformation of Regional Spatial Coordinative Development of the Guangdong- Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area in the Lens of Media Interaction Process

The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) is built across three different governance contexts; these three cities have different socio-political structures, legal systems, and cultural identities. From the perspective of media geography, this article proposes a framework with four dimensions and three categories, to explore how cross-border media communication affects the formation and accumulation of social capital, and thus influences regional coordination under the political structure of one country, two systems in the region. To fully understand the different characteristics of each development stage, the research further divides the synergic development process into five phases: economic bonding, policy-economic bonding, policy-economic bridging, policy-social linking, and policy-economic-social bridging. The study found that even though media interactions between Guangdong, Hong Kong, and Macao have intensified in frequency, social capital at the socio-cultural level is relatively weak. Owing to the lack of a widely accepted regional media platform that fits into the communication habits of people in all GBA cities, it is difficult to build an effective monitoring mechanism and feedback system that enables a detection and response to people's opinions on the ground. Consequently, disagreements and conflicts have led to high social costs for some cross-border infrastructure projects. By exploring the mechanisms of media interaction and social capital formation within the regional coordination process, this paper concludes with three strategies to achieve effective multilevel connection and coordination between GBA cities, especially in social and cultural aspects. 1) Governments in each city should work together to build up a regional platform and broaden media channels for the circulation of shared information, which fits various local situations and media usage habits. 2) There is a need for the GBA to establish an effective public opinion monitoring and feedback system on a regional scale, which penetrates people's daily lives, and is accessible to the wider public. Updating prompt information based on people's needs, views, and expectations helps strengthen the entire regional cooperation system and resilient governance structure. 3) Linking propagation is important for the stabilization of social development. Overall, there is a need for the GBA to build a more flexible multilevel dialogue mechanism that facilitates vertical communication to enhance non-institutional and effective bottom-level collaboration.
