The emergence over the last decade of large numbers of vulnerable EU citizens begging on Swedish streets has led to ambivalent responses from the Swedish state, including from local police forces charged with policing public order. Based on research including interviews with vulnerable EU citizens and with police officials in two socio‐economically divergent areas of Stockholm, this paper seeks to understand how policing practices are motivated and enacted towards this group and how these practices are experienced by those targeted. The results reveal a set of policing practices which, whilst framed within a depoliticised logic of what Nicholas Blomley calls “pedestrianism”, work to produce spatially uneven punitive landscapes for those begging. The paper argues that understanding the role of police as “street‐level bureaucrats” (following Michael Lipsky), with the agency to escalate or soften revanchist landscapes, is fundamental to understanding the contingencies at the heart of punitive urbanisms.

通过行人主义进行复仇：不均衡警务景观生产中的街头官僚主义

在过去的十年中，大量易受伤害的欧盟公民在瑞典街头乞讨，这导致瑞典政府，包括负责维护公共秩序的地方警察部队做出了矛盾的回应。基于包括对脆弱的欧盟公民和斯德哥尔摩两个社会经济差异地区的警察官员进行访谈在内的研究，本文力求了解警务实践是如何激励和制定针对该群体的，以及目标人群如何体验这些实践。结果揭示了一系列警务实践，同时以尼古拉斯·布洛姆利（Nicholas Blomley）所谓的“行人主义”的去政治化逻辑为框架，努力为乞讨的人创造空间不均匀的惩罚性景观。
