Concerns have been raised regarding smart city innovations leading to, or consolidating, technocratic urban governance and the tokenization of citizens. Less research, however, has explored how we make sense of ongoing appropriation of the resources, skills, and expertise of corporate smart cities and what this means for future cities. In this article, we examine the summoning of political subjectivity through the practices of retrofitting, repurposing, and reinvigorating. We consider them as civic infrastructure to sensitize the infrastructural acts and conventions that are assembled for exploring inclusive and participatory ways of shaping urban futures. These practices, illustrated by examples in Adelaide, Dublin, and Boston, focus on capabilities not only to write code, access data, or design a prototype but also to devise diverse sociotechnical arrangements and power relations to disobey, question, and dissent from technocratic visions and practices. The article concludes by suggesting further examination of the summoning of political subjectivity from within established institutions to widen dissent and appropriation of the corporate smart city. Key Words: citizen, infrastructure, political subjectivity, smart city, urban future.

公民基础设施和企业智慧城市的占用

对于导致或巩固技术官僚城市治理和公民通证化的智慧城市创新,人们已经提出了担忧。然而,较少的研究探索了我们如何理解持续分配企业智慧城市的资源,技能和专业知识,以及这对未来城市的意义。在本文中,我们将通过改造,重新定位和重新振兴的实践来考察对政治主体性的召唤。我们认为它们是公民基础设施,旨在激发人们探索探索塑造城市未来的包容性和参与性方式的基础设施行为和公约。以阿德莱德,都柏林和波士顿的示例为例,这些做法不仅关注代码编写,访问数据,或设计一个原型,还可以设计出各种社会技术安排和权力关系,以抵制,质疑和反对技术官僚主义的观点和做法。本文最后提出建议,进一步研究既有机构内部对政治主观性的召唤,以扩大对企业智慧城市的异议和挪用。关键词:公民,基础设施,政治主体,智慧城市,城市未来。
