While the entrepreneurialisation of local administrations is widely acknowledged, the extent and format of institutional and organisational structures that accompany market-oriented ideological shifts and transitions in urban governance often remain unnoticed. This article provides an original theoretical argument and frame of analysis to forensically study the underlying infrastructures of entrepreneurial governance systems. We argue that complex institutional and organisational arrangements in market-oriented urban development can be comprehended through fragmented governance architectures, a conceptual perspective that we borrowed from governance studies and operationalised in relation to property development. We illustrate the application of the framework by examining entrepreneurial transformations in Amsterdam’s residential property production. Based on rich empirical evidence, including discourse analysis, policy analysis and in-depth interviews with key policy and property industry actors, we illuminate divergent public-sector regulation of market activities, intra-organisational discrepancies, and fuzzy narratives in policy interventions which are tied to specific spatial interventions mushrooming in the city. Uncoordinated and sometimes contradictory institutional ties link public and private actors in these property production processes, forming a complex and chaotic landscape of regulations, actors, and relations. This fragmentation, we posit, warrants recognition as it lies at the heart of scattered investments in the urban built environment.

尽管地方行政管理机构的企业化得到了广泛认可，但是，伴随着市场导向的意识形态转变和城市治理转变的体制和组织结构的范围和形式却常常未被注意到。本文提供了一个原始的理论论据和分析框架，以法医研究企业家治理系统的基础结构。我们认为，可以通过零散的治理架构来理解以市场为导向的城市发展中的复杂制度和组织安排。，这是我们从治理研究中借鉴并在房地产开发方面投入运营的概念性观点。我们通过研究阿姆斯特丹住宅房地产生产中的企业转型来说明该框架的应用。基于丰富的经验证据，包括话语分析，政策分析以及对关键政策和房地产行业参与者的深入访谈，我们阐明了公共部门对市场活动的不同监管，组织内部差异以及政策干预中的模糊叙述在城市中迅速发展的特定空间干预措施。在这些财产生产过程中，不协调的，有时是相互矛盾的制度联系将公共和私人行为者联系在一起，形成了规则，行为者和关系的复杂混乱的局面。
