摘要

为了理解封闭式社区的动态,本文通过阿根廷拉普拉塔封闭式社区居民的经历,研究了与空间相关的恐惧概念。通过对六名参与者的深入访谈和在不同地区的观察,可以了解空间的使用及其对犯罪恐惧和其他安全观念的影响。这些故事表明,居民如何将封闭的社区视为唯一安全的生活形式,无论是在身体上还是在社会上,局外人都是默认的危险。此外,它还建立了在空间中使用的手段来照顾这些不安全感,例如摄像头,警卫和围栏。这些叙述有助于理解自治如何通过控制空间的使用来促进安全感。我的研究结果表明,封闭式社区不仅加剧了室内外的隔离,还强调和强化了外界是一个不安全空间的观念,并为恐惧和需要控制等情绪提供了理由。

Safe behind the gate: Safety perceptions of residents in barrios cerrados in La Plata
To understand the dynamics of the gated community, in this article, conceptions of fear in relation to space are being studied through the experience of residents in gated communities in La Plata, Argentina. In-depth interviews with six participants and observations in different barrios cerrados allowed for an understanding of the use of space and its impact on fear of crime and other safety perceptions. The stories showed how enclosed communities are perceived by the residents as the only safe form of living, both physically and socially, with the outsider being dangerous by default. Also, it established the means used in the space to nurse these feelings of insecurity, such as cameras, guards and fences. The narratives helped understand how self-governance contributes to a feeling of security by being in control of the use of space. My findings showed how gated communities not only contribute to more segregation between inside and outside but also emphasize and reinforce the idea of the outside being an insecure space, and as a justification for emotions such as fear and the need to be in control.

期刊介绍: Emotion, Space and Society aims to provide a forum for interdisciplinary debate on theoretically informed research on the emotional intersections between people and places. These aims are broadly conceived to encourage investigations of feelings and affect in various spatial and social contexts, environments and landscapes. Questions of emotion are relevant to several different disciplines, and the editors welcome submissions from across the full spectrum of the humanities and social sciences. The journal editorial and presentational structure and style will demonstrate the richness generated by an interdisciplinary engagement with emotions and affects.
