新兴田园城市:移动互联网时代的城镇化理论重构

E-GARDEN CITY: RECONSTRUCTION OF URBANIZATION THEORY IN THE MOBILE INTERNET ERA

集聚的规模效应与分散的环境效应无法在实体空间中实现双优是田园城市在前信息时代无法突破的规模悖论。移动互联网时代的城镇化让田园城市理想获得实现的可能,因为流空间所引致的虚拟集聚在创造更多经济发展机会与就业岗位的同时,并不必然引致实体建成空间开发密度与强度的大幅提升。流乡村与相对分散的流城镇构成的新兴田园城市,具有强劲的内生动力,能够链接更大范围的产业分工体系,从而提供更为充分的就业和更宜居的生活环境。新兴田园城市的出现预示着城镇化定义的改变。移动互联网时代的城镇化是流空间扩展与消退的过程,更是精英群体改变社会空间关系进而推动人的城镇化的过程。

The scale paradox of Garden City to realize both the scale effect of agglomeration and the environment effect of decentralization cannot be broken before the information era.Urbanization in the mobile internet era can make the Garden City ideal come true,because the virtual agglomeration caused by space of flows does not necessarily cause the increase in the density and intensity of built-up areas when it creates more economic development and employment opportunities.The E-Garden City constituted by the country in flows and the low-density town in flows possesses a strong endogenous power,and can connect the industrial division system in a wider range and provide enough jobs and a more livable environment.The emergence of E-Garden City indicates the change of urbanization definition.Urbanization in the mobile internet era is not only a process of expansion and vanishing of space of flows,but also a process in which the elites change social and spatial relations to push forward the urbanization of people.
