ABSTRACT

In recent years, ‘authoritarian neoliberalism’ has emerged as a leading framework for understanding the specificities of neoliberalization post-2007/8 financial crisis. The concept has acquired particular salience in the study of urban transformations as cities have been portrayed as key sites for the articulation of authoritarian neoliberalism. This paper argues against a purely territorial conceptualization of authoritarian neoliberalism in cities, conceiving the latter as targets of neoliberal restructuring construed within an overarching, centralized state. Rather, it argues that understanding the state as a multiscalar field of social compromises allows us to better flesh out this complex phenomenon. Empirically, it traces processes of regulatory rescaling surrounding the implementation of the Belgrade Waterfront project in Serbia which has simultaneously led to a strengthening of decision-making at the national level and rendered the urban scale more permeable to contestation, paving the way for the emergence of key grassroots organizations like Ne Da(vi)mo Beograd.

城市规模在巩固威权新自由主义中的作用:看看 2012 年后塞尔维亚贝尔格莱德的新自由主义化

摘要

近年来,“威权新自由主义”已成为理解 2007/8 金融危机后新自由主义化特点的主要框架。这个概念在城市转型研究中特别突出,因为城市被描绘为表达威权新自由主义的关键场所。本文反对城市中威权新自由主义的纯粹地域概念化,认为后者是在一个总体集中的国家内进行的新自由主义重组的目标。相反,它认为将国家理解为社会妥协的多尺度领域可以让我们更好地充实这一复杂现象。根据经验,并使城市规模更易于竞争,为 Ne Da(vi)mo Beograd 等关键草根组织的出现铺平了道路。
