Abstract

Abstract:

This essay seeks to contribute to the contemporary literature on urbanization by focusing on the internal diversity existing in one emerging global city—Miami. We present first overall economic characteristics of this metropolitan area before discussing characteristics of three pairs of municipalities within it. These localities were deliberately selected to highlight contrasts and disparities in the history and present situation of specific places that tend to be ignored or bypassed in general descriptions of a given metropolitan area. A focus on these disparities provides a necessary tool to fully understand the dynamics of urbanization under contemporary capitalism.

新兴全球城市的微观社会学：迈阿密

摘要：这篇文章旨在通过关注一个新兴全球城市--迈阿密--存在的内部多样性，为当代城市化文献做出贡献。我们首先介绍了这个大都市区的总体经济特征，然后讨论了其中三对城市的特征。我们特意选择了这些地方，以突出特定地方在历史和现状方面的对比和差异，而在对特定大都市区的一般性描述中，这些对比和差异往往被忽视或绕过。关注这些差异为充分理解当代资本主义下的城市化动态提供了必要的工具。
