从模糊走向清晰:城市基层治理的全景敞视主义——以乐街“智慧平台”建设为例

From Fuzziness to Clarity: The Panopticism of Urban Grassroots Governance—— Case Study of Le Subdistrict Smart Platform Construction

外部协同和内部整合两种治理方式没能根本改变城市基层治理的模糊性。乐街"智慧平台"实践表明,城市基层政府在不改变法律政策、管理体制和机构编制等情况下,运用信息技术建构"全景敞视"装置,简化社区的复杂性,优化执法和风险的可读性,实现了清晰治理。这一全景敞视主义的治理方式源起于权威体制寻求科技加持,成于权威动员、服务置换和自主架构推进个体信息的复合汲取,预示着科技权威体制在信息社会的发展可能性。

The existing literature emphasizes either the external synergy or the internal integration is expected to govern the complexity of urban China,but neither of them alters the fuzziness of urban grassroots governance.Without changing the existing laws,policies,and establishment of institutions,the practice of"Smart Platform"in Le subdistrict office shows that the using of information technology in grassroots governance constructs a panoramic installation of urban society,which simplifies the complex situation of the community,optimizes the legibility of administrative enforcement and social risks,and enhances the clearness of urban grassroots governance.This finding shows the panopticism of urban grassroots governance in China.It originates from the authority system,which with a preference of order,seeks force from information technology,uses authority mobilization,service replacement and autonomous framing to promote composite information absorption,and indicates that the technology authoritarianism is becoming more and more mature in the information society.
