给技术治理做减法——再思城市治理的数智化

Beware of"Techno-chauvinism"-Rethinking Digitalization and Intelligentization in Urban Governance

中国开展城市数字化转型和智慧城市建设已逾十年,从最早的“智能北京”,到2016年前后开始大规模启动的新型智慧城市建设,再到如今以打造各种底座、大脑为主要手段的“城市平台化进程”。建设主体也经历了由住建和科技部门主导,到发改委牵头,再到网信办、数据局等部委接棒,乃至同互联网公司开展政企合作。报告显示,全世界大概有700多座智慧城市,其中500多座在中国,而中国一共有600多座城市。因此有戏言,“中国还有100个不智慧的城市”。

China's urban construction and governance activities have begun to take digital intelligence as their values and goals.with the increasing of technocracy,urban governance is in danger of falling into"technological chauvinism",itis necessaryand urgent to maintain a cautious attitude towards the myth of digitalization and intelligentization and to review and re-evaluate some already solid ways of thinking and governance concepts.At present,the"governance of technology"obviously lags behind the"governance with technology",while the governance of"technical governance"needs to be strengthened even more.Thedeep ideologicaldilemma thatneedsto be solved is to equate the modernization of governance systems and governance capabilities with digitalization and intelligentization.Future urban governance needs to uphold a kind of"technological humbleness"under the rule of limited technical governance.
