摘要

大型技术系统(LTS)是社会结构，重新配置治理实践和社会规范。在本文中，考虑到主导话语在规范新系统中的作用，以当地LTS为例，研究了影响英国城市有轨电车出现的社会技术动态。它考察了1870年的电车法案如何试图在相互竞争的利益之间进行裁决，这塑造了新的电车路线的背景。系统建设者的概念被用来解释新项目如何获得公众支持。这个案例确定了系统建设者所面临的约束，并指出他们与主流社会政治环境的互动影响了系统的发展和稳定。

A “poor man’s carriage”: system building and social interactivity in UK urban tramway development, 1860–1890

Large technical systems (LTS) are socially structuring, reconfiguring governance practices and social norms. In this article, socio-technical dynamics that influenced the emergence of UK urban tramways, as examples of local LTS, are investigated, considering the role of dominant discourses in normalizing new systems. It examines how the 1870 Tramways Act attempted to adjudicate between competing interests, which shaped the context for new tramway routes. The concept of system builders is used to explain how new projects recruit public support. This case identifies constraints faced by system builders and indicates that their interaction with prevailing socio-political contexts impacts the system development and stability.
