Abstract

Comparative literature on subaltern urbanism neglects inequalities among the poor that mimic exclusionary processes to which they have been subjected, what we call ‘scalar imitation’. Using Robinson’s ‘launching’ tactic towards ‘generative comparison’, we identify and explain the evolution of class differentiation within a resettlement colony in Delhi’s periphery, reference ‘glimpses’ of similar processes in literature on subaltern urbanism, and discuss epistemological underpinnings of our analysis. We revise ‘local uniqueness’, which Massey developed early in her career, and adhere to her later topological sensibilities and Foucault’s ‘ascending analysis’. We conclude by highlighting the blurring of worlding and place making processes.

斗争与排斥的平凡：从南北向城市“鸿沟”的视角

摘要

关于次要城市主义的比较文献忽略了穷人之间的不平等现象，他们模仿了他们所经历的排他性过程，我们称之为“标量模仿”。我们使用鲁滨逊向“生成比较”的“启动”策略，识别并解释了德里外围移民群体内阶级分化的演变，参考了关于次要城市主义文学中类似过程的“瞥见”，并讨论了我们分析的认识论基础。我们修改了Massey在其职业生涯早期发展的“局部唯一性”，并坚持了她后来的拓扑敏感性和福柯的“上升分析”。最后，我们着重强调模糊的世界化和场所制作过程。
