ABSTRACT

This paper examines the relevance of the ocean in children's urban experiences, putting into dialogue the premises of blue urbanism and child-friendly cities. The focus is on discussing how children's lives are entangled with coastal cities, urging the field of children's geographies to unpack how spatial conditions in coastal cities serve as a lens to make sense of children's narratives in urban spaces. The most significant themes that emerged from this interest include the narratives of children in coastal public spaces, child-specific risks, diversity of childhood(s) in coastal cities, and children's agency toward disaster resilience. Such discussions suggest that both the principles of blue urbanism and child-friendly cities are instructive to shift the fixity of our thinking about children's urban spaces, urging children's geographies to extend its mantle to cover the emergent logics of children's narratives in the coastal cities. Overall, this work is an invitation for children's geographers to further explore the ocean-child interconnectedness as a way of rethinking urbanity. Child-friendly blue urbanism is still uncharted but the opportunities thereof are immense. It is then the task of children's geographers to build on this potential and traverse other disciplines toward further navigating children's lives in coastal cities.

沿海城市的儿童空间:对传统城市理解的挑战和对儿童友好的蓝色城市主义的前景

摘要

本文探讨海洋在儿童城市体验中的相关性,将蓝色城市主义和儿童友好城市的前提进行对话。重点是讨论儿童的生活如何与沿海城市纠缠在一起,敦促儿童地理学领域解开沿海城市的空间条件如何作为一个镜头来理解儿童在城市空间中的叙述。从这种兴趣中产生的最重要的主题包括沿海公共空间中儿童的叙述、儿童特有的风险、沿海城市儿童的多样性,以及儿童在抗灾能力方面的能动性。这样的讨论表明,蓝色城市主义和儿童友好城市的原则对于改变我们对儿童城市空间的固定性思考具有指导意义,敦促儿童地理扩展其范围,以涵盖沿海城市儿童叙事的新兴逻辑。总体而言,这项工作邀请儿童地理学家进一步探索海洋与儿童的相互联系,以此作为重新思考城市性的一种方式。对儿童友好的蓝色城市主义仍然未知,但其中的机会是巨大的。然后,儿童地理学家的任务就是利用这种潜力,跨越其他学科,进一步探索沿海城市儿童的生活。对儿童友好的蓝色城市主义仍然未知,但其中的机会是巨大的。然后,儿童地理学家的任务就是利用这种潜力,跨越其他学科,进一步探索沿海城市儿童的生活。对儿童友好的蓝色城市主义仍然未知,但其中的机会是巨大的。然后,儿童地理学家的任务就是利用这种潜力,跨越其他学科,进一步探索沿海城市儿童的生活。
