Description
上海正在成為一個全球城市，都市空間的巨大變化不僅改 變 了城市的外貌，同時也影響了人們的日常生活。上海都市空間的急速擴展，是以超乎通常現代化的發展觀念和手段驅動的，這一過程混雜了合理的功能性考慮和極富幻想的想象。
在演講中，講者涉及當代上海都市文化中的全球化與本地化關係中的複雜因素，以及租界的半殖民地經驗與本地知識重建的關係。值得一提的是，上海本地知識的重建是在消費主義的語境中片面展開的。專業管理階層對空間的需求很少被質疑或拒絕，國際商務人士的“訴求”在上海形成全球化都市的過程中進一步被合理化、自然化為上海發展成為全球性的大都市的先決條件。
Shanghai is gradually becoming a global city. The great transformation of the urban space not only changes the outlook of the city, but also influences the daily life of the ordinary people. The rapid expansion of urban space in Shanghai is driven by the over-modernized concept and means, and the process of the expansion mingles with the rationally functional consideration and dreamlike imagination.
In my talk, I try to deal with the complicated factors of globalization and localization appearing in the contemporary Shanghai urban culture, and to relate the semi-colonial experience to the reconstruction process of the local knowledge. It is note-worthy that this reconstruction of the local knowledge is likely to succeed only in the context of consumerism. The demand of urban space from the professional management class is rarely questioned or refused, and the "requirements" of international businessmen are probably rationalized or naturalized as the prerequisites of Shanghai ?s becoming a global city in the process of turning Shanghai into a globalized metropolitan.
