摘要

智慧城市作为一个概念已经存在很长一段时间了。然而,尽管大多数人生活在中小城市(SMCs),但大多数智慧城市(SCs)的例子都来自特大城市(MCs)。本文从中小城市的角度来探讨智慧城市的语境设置。本文首先概述了SCs研究和开发的当前趋势,突出了当前的偏见及其带来的挑战。接下来,我们将介绍一些具体的项目例子,这些项目在中小城市的背景下引入了某种形式的“智慧”,并解释了所述背景的影响以及它带来的具体效果。在这些经验的基础上,我们总结了目前对智慧城市的理解,重点是智慧城市的多面性(如智慧经济、智慧人、智慧治理、智慧交通、智慧环境和智慧生活);我们描述了主流出版物,并强调了对大城市和超大城市的偏见(有时甚至是潜意识的);举例说明从这种偏见中得出的假设(通常是隐含的);最后,我们定义了中小城市对环境化SCs的需求。本文的目的是建立和加强在智慧城市文献中需要SMCs视角的论述。我们希望提供一个问题的初步提法,主要侧重于独特的需求和具体的要求。我们希望这三个案例描述了在中小城市应用新解决方案和研究供应链的效果,以及从这些经验中吸取的教训,将鼓励更多的研究从中小企业的角度出发。为此,本文旨在证明这种研究不足的观点的必要性,并提出SMCs面临的有趣挑战,这些挑战可以作为此类研究的初步方向。

Smaller is smarter: A case for small to medium-sized smart cities
Smart Cities have been around as a concept for quite some time. However, most examples of Smart Cities (SCs) originate from megacities (MCs), despite the fact that most people live in Small and Medium-sized Cities (SMCs). This paper addresses the contextual setting for smart cities from the perspective of such small and medium-sized cities. It starts with an overview of the current trends in the research and development of SCs, highlighting the current bias and the challenges it brings. We follow with a few concrete examples of projects which introduced some form of “smartness” in the small and medium cities context, explaining what influence said context had and what specific effects did it lead to. Building on those experiences, we summarise the current understanding of Smart Cities, with a focus on its multi-faceted (e.g., smart economy, smart people, smart governance, smart mobility, smart environment and smart living) nature; we describe mainstream publications and highlight the bias towards large and very large cities (sometimes even subconscious); give examples of (often implicit) assumptions deriving from this bias; finally, we define the need of contextualising SCs also for small and medium-sized cities. The aim of this paper is to establish and strengthen the discourse on the need for SMCs perspective in Smart Cities literature. We hope to provide an initial formulation of the problem, mainly focusing on the unique needs and the specific requirements. We expect that the three example cases describing the effects of applying new solutions and studying SC on small and medium-sized cities, together with the lessons learnt from these experiences, will encourage more research to consider SMCs perspective. To this end, the current paper aims to justify the need for this under-studied perspective, as well as to propose interesting challenges faced by SMCs that can serve as initial directions of such research.
