The responses by Acuto, Frantzeskaki, Gordon & Johnson, Pinault and Smeds all draw attention to the need to situate C40 in a wider political and economic context. Global city networks such as C40 facilitate, orchestrate, test and diffuse critical innovations for urban climate action through processes of experimentation. How these processes of on-the-ground experimentation in networked cities relate to global climate action and governance remains however poorly understood. Further research is needed to disclose and unpack the hidden politics, knowledge dynamics and institutional reconfigurations of such experiments curtailed by seemingly inclusive but rather opaque concepts such as living labs, co-creation and co-production.

将 C40 置于网络化城市气候治理的演进中

Acuto、Frantzeskaki、Gordon & Johnson、Pinault 和 Smeds 的回应都引起人们对将 C40 置于更广泛的政治和经济背景中的必要性的关注。C40 等全球城市网络通过实验过程促进、协调、测试和传播对城市气候行动的关键创新。然而，这些在网络城市中进行的实地实验过程如何与全球气候行动和治理相关联，仍然知之甚少。需要进一步的研究来揭示和解开这些实验的隐藏政治、知识动态和制度重组，这些实验被生活实验室、共同创造和共同生产等看似包容但相当不透明的概念所削弱。
