Criminological engagement with urban environments has burgeoned, including investigations into the criminological sense of place and into the atmospheres of crime and justice. This article analyses cities under lockdown in the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. Used in numerous cities, lockdowns conjoin public health initiatives and crime control to restrict the location and activities of citizens. Drawing on textual and ethnographic exploration of lockdown in Melbourne, Australia, the article examines how we make meaning in lockdown through processes of sensory and spatial interpretation. Such an approach exposes both atmospheres of control, through the criminalization of everyday activities, and numerous instances of subversion through resistance to and adaptation of the spatial and sensorial characteristics of lockdown. The article argues for the importance of the sensory as a means of conceptualizing, repopulating and redesigning future cities after lockdown ends.

城市的界限：封锁的气氛

与城市环境的犯罪学研究迅速发展，包括对犯罪学的地方感以及犯罪和司法环境的调查。本文分析了在 2020 年 COVID-19 大流行中被封锁的城市。在许多城市中，封锁将公共卫生举措和犯罪控制结合起来，以限制公民的位置和活动。本文借鉴澳大利亚墨尔本对封锁的文本和民族志探索，探讨了我们如何通过感官和空间解释的过程来理解封锁的意义。这种方法通过将日常活动定为犯罪，暴露了控制气氛，也暴露了通过抵制和适应封锁的空间和感官特征而产生的无数颠覆实例。
