ABSTRACT

This study explores urban forestry as a maintenance practice capable of enhancing more-than-human commons in the city. Focusing on the places associated with tree care, the methodology takes as a case study the Tokyo Metropolitan Parks, conducting quantitative and qualitative analysis through the means of immersive field work and questionnaires, to reveal how urban forestry practices materialize within the parks. Regarding the spatial relations between humans and/or non-humans with resources, different Urban Forestry Elements (UFE) have been found, as well as their collection in groups within the parks forming Urban Forestry Assemblages (UFA). The paper creates a comprehensive framework that reveals these places for urban forestry as important beacons for urban commoning.

摘要

本研究探讨了城市林业作为一种维护实践，能够增强城市中超越人类的公地。该方法侧重于与树木护理相关的场所，以东京都公园为案例研究，通过沉浸式实地工作和问卷调查的方式进行定量和定性分析，揭示城市林业实践如何在公园内实现。关于人类和/或非人类与资源之间的空间关系，已经发现了不同的城市林业要素（UFE），以及它们在公园内的群体集合，形成了城市林业组合（UFA）。该论文创建了一个综合框架，揭示了这些城市林业场所是城市共享的重要灯塔。
