地方、地方性与城中村改造的社会文化考察——以猎德村为例

PLACE, PLACENESS AND THE SOCI-CULTURAL INVESTIGATION ON URBAN VILLAGE REDEVELOPMENT: A CASE STUDY OF LIEDE VILLAGE

本研究尝试从地方性角度出发,分析城中村地方性的形成机制和体现方式,利用历史演进的分析方法考察城中村改造前后地方性解构与重构现状。从地方等核心概念出发,探讨地方性的社会建构体系及特征,并认为地方性从景观、文本、符号及感知四个维度进行持续的社会建构。结合广州猎德村整体改造为案例发现地方性的建构与时空元素紧密相关,镶嵌在地方的发展过程,并处于动态的变化之中。本文从理论上构建中国城市化中地方性研究框架;现实上为更深入理解城中村改造与地方性的关系,为更好地推进城市更新质量提供一定的参考。

Currently, the rapid modernization and urbanization in China deeply and sharply reshape the interrelationship between rural and urban, promoting a huge wave of demolition and reconstruction of urban villages. In contrast to existing knowledge of urban village which heavily base on economic and urban planning perspectives, this paper attempts to interrogate the reconstruction of placeness of urban village with the perspectives of culture and place. On the basis of ＇place＇, this paper conducts on the construction of placeness, concluding that landscape, text, symbol and perception（subjective feelings） constructed placeness. As mentioned above, this paper deconstructs placeness into four main dimensions. Landscape is the physical presentation of placeness, which reflects interrelationships between human and natural environment. Additionally, text and symbol contribute memory, description and imagination of a place, which constructs the uniqueness of a place. Last but not the least, local people＇s subjective perception of place also plays an important role in construction placeness. Fashioning these four dimensions as theoretical framework, this paper analyze the chronological development of the placeness of a specific place. Taking Liede village as example,which is the so- called most successful case of urban village redevelopment project, we found that the construction of placeness is embedded on the developmental context of a place, which is going through an ongoing process. Interview and field research are taken as research methods to collect first hand data. Additionally, local chronicles and official documents are also collected. Research objects includes local villagers, government and property developers. To conclude, placeness is under an on-going process of construction.
