ABSTRACT

Many cities have adopted welcoming strategies, branding themselves as cities of welcome or of solidarity. Urban scholarship to date has interpreted these efforts either under the rubric of municipal governance reform or urban citizenship, frameworks which both sideline the role of civil society and social movements of refugees. Since these actors play crucial roles in negotiating the terms of solidarity, hospitality and inclusion, this paper brings together research perspectives from urban governance, civil society, and (migrant) mobilization literatures to gain a better understanding of the collaborative/competitive interactions between the key players engaged in this urban policy arena. This discussion reveals that the evolving practices and interrelations of municipalities, civil society actors and social movements of refugees imply opportunities, but also difficulties in building substantively welcoming arrival structures, highlighting the contested meaning of terms such as “solidarity city” in the contemporary constellation.

摘要

许多城市采用了欢迎策略，将自己打造成欢迎或团结的城市。迄今为止，城市学者在市政治理改革或城市公民权的标题下解释了这些努力，这些框架都将公民社会的作用和难民的社会运动置于边缘地位。由于这些行为者在协商团结、热情好客和包容的条款中发挥着至关重要的作用，本文汇集了城市治理、公民社会和（移民）动员文献的研究观点，以更好地理解关键因素之间的合作/竞争互动。参与这个城市政策领域的参与者。这一讨论揭示了市政当局不断发展的实践和相互关系，
