摘要
近20年来,城市竞争日益加剧,全世界的城市专家、规划工作者和决策者都强烈意识到,城市的不良形象阻碍城市的繁荣和进步,因此必须提升城市意象,使之富有吸引力。城市意象的形成原因与城市历史、地理特征及自然环境等因素有关,城市意象可能存在强烈或单薄,正面或负面等对比。可通过十种媒体策略塑造城市意象:鼓励观光,举办热点活动,转负面特征为正面特征,改变城市名称、徽志或宣传语,培养市民自豪感,解决造成城市负面意象的主要问题,传达与“固化意象”相反的信息,忽视固化意象和意象危机,坦承负面形象,宣传策略中的区域联系或分离。正确认识城市意象面临的问题,采用有效策略,才可能有针对性地提升城市形象,取得更大发展。
