Abstract In a rising urban age planning for cities around the globe is increasingly based on assessments of ecosystem services, making enhanced considerations of ecosystem service justice critically important. Yet, justice remains a ‘blind spot’ in urban ecosystem service models and research, which can be traced back to the ecological and economic legacies of the concept itself. This legacy reproduces the normative focus on natural capital as a guarantee of sustaining ecosystem services, enforces a static understanding of nature that insufficiently considers human agency, and conceptualizes ecosystem service flows from nature to humans in a way that does not reflect the social-ecological structure and constantly shifting priorities of the urban realm. In response, this conceptual paper aims at broadening the analytical foundation for justice in urban ecosystem service assessments by presenting a model that links the co-production of urban ecosystem services (including infrastructure, institutions, and perceptions) with established lines of recognition, procedural, and distributional justice. It further highlights the need to embed these classical dimensions of justice within both spatial (downscaled and inter-scalar approaches) and temporal (interrelated past, present, and future conditions) justice frames. Relying on urban environmental, social, spatial and temporal justice theory as well ecosystem service scholarship, we outline theoretical entry points and provide practical examples for weaving notions of justice into urban ecosystem service research and practice, while highlighting future research needs.

将正义理念融入城市生态系统服务研究与实践

摘要 在日益增长的城市时代,全球城市的规划越来越基于生态系统服务的评估,这使得加强对生态系统服务正义的考虑变得至关重要。然而,正义仍然是城市生态系统服务模型和研究的“盲点”,这可以追溯到概念本身的生态和经济遗产。这一遗产再现了将自然资本作为维持生态系统服务的保证的规范性关注,强制对自然的静态理解没有充分考虑人类能动性,并以不反映社会-生态结构的方式将生态系统服务从自然流向人类的概念化并不断改变城市领域的优先事项。作为回应,这篇概念性论文旨在通过提出一个模型,将城市生态系统服务(包括基础设施、制度和观念)的共同生产与既定的认可、程序和分配正义联系起来,从而拓宽城市生态系统服务评估中公正的分析基础. 它还强调需要将这些经典的正义维度嵌入空间(缩小和跨标量方法)和时间(相互关联的过去、现在和未来条件)正义框架中。依托城市环境、社会、时空正义理论以及生态系统服务学术,我们勾勒出理论切入点,并为将正义理念融入城市生态系统服务研究与实践提供实践案例,
