摘要
尽管集装箱在全球化贸易中很重要,但在法学研究中却一直被忽视。我们对法律活动的书面形式的学科迷恋已经损害了对超越文本媒介的监管实践的研究。在本文中,我认为,集装箱化的过程创造了跨国模式的材料正常化。通过重构国际标准化组织(International Organization for Standardization)内部的辩论,我认为集装箱标准化有效地规范了一种特定的世界秩序观。我不认为容器是无足轻重的金属盒子,而是认为它们是对全球治理的社会技术想象的储存库。
Normalising global commerce: containerisation, materiality, and transnational regulation (1956–68)
Despite their importance in globalised trade, shipping containers have been neglected in legal scholarship. Our disciplinary fascination with written forms of legal activity has come to the detriment of the study of regulatory practices that operate beyond textual mediums. In this article, I argue that processes of containerisation created transnational patterns of material normalisation. By reconstructing the debates within the International Organization for Standardization, I suggest that container standardisation effectively normalised a particular vision of world ordering. Instead of seeing containers as insignificant metal boxes, I contend they are repositories of sociotechnical imaginaries of global governance.
