EXTRASTATECRAFT: THE POWER OF INFRASTRUCTURE SPACE
Book ID/图书代码: 13850014B68999
English Summary/英文概要: Infrastructure is not only the underground pipes and wires that control our cities but also the hidden rules for structuring the spaces all around
us—free trade zones, smart cities, suburbs and malls. Extrastatecraft charts the rise of the hidden rules that control this “infrastructure
space”, and shows how it is creating new forms of power, beyond the reach of government. In a series of fascinating case studies, Easterling visits fields of infrastructure with the greatest impact on our world—tracking everything from standards for the thinness of credit cards, to the urbanism of mobile telephony as the world’s largest shared platform, to the rules for the free zone as the most contagious new world city paradigm. In conclusion, she proposes some unexpected techniques for resisting power in a contemporary world.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 基础设施不单单指控制着城市的地下光缆电线,还包括我们所处世界中看不见的规则,例如自由贸易区,智能城市,郊区和商场等。《基础设施的世界》指出了基础设施在当今世界扮演了越来越重要的角色,并展示了它是如何在政府的控制之外创造出新力量的。在一系列有趣的案例学习中,伊斯特林来到了对我们生活区域已产生重大影响的基础设施世界中,并且调查了很多细节,例如信用卡的厚薄有何标准,作为世界上最大的公共平台——手机的城市普及度,以及新世界中传播度最高的自由贸易区有哪些规则。总之,伊斯特林为当代城市更为持久地发展提出了很多意想不到的建议。(XAT)
