摘要

本文结合经济地理学、后殖民城市主义和全球城市化的不同文献,试图对印度农村形成的偏远城市形成进行理论理解。该分析利用了在比哈尔邦和西孟加拉邦两个研究地点收集的大量原始数据,为如此偏远的地区提供了罕见的丰富数据集。我们观察到新兴的城市形态是由建筑环境的密集化、扩张和融合以及农业部门就业的大规模转移造成的。与此同时,其他地方经济机会稀缺,导致劳动力循环流动显著增加。我们引入了注入型城市化的概念,以表示在没有显著的本地集聚过程的情况下,通过汇款外生产生的一种城市化形式。汇款的注入推动了当地经济结构调整和消费经济的出现。注入式城市化刺激了当地的发展,但它对其他地方经济活动的依赖引发了有关其可持续性的重要问题。

Injected Urbanism? Exploring India’s Urbanizing Periphery
Abstract Engaging with different literatures in economic geography, postcolonial urbanism, and planetary urbanization, this article seeks to develop a theoretical understanding of remote urban formations taking shape in India’s countryside. The analysis draws on extensive primary data collected at two study sites in Bihar and West Bengal, which rendered an uncommonly rich data set for such remote areas. We observe emergent urban formations that result from densification, expansion, and amalgamation of built-up environments and a massive shift of employment out of the agricultural sector. At the same time, alternative local economic opportunities are scarce, giving way to significant increases in circular labor migration. We introduce the concept of injected urbanism to denote a form of urbanization that is exogenously generated through remittances, in the absence of significant local agglomeration processes. The infusion of remittances drives local economic restructuring and the emergence of a consumption economy. Injected urbanism spurs local development, but its dependence on economic activity elsewhere raises important questions about its sustainability.

期刊介绍: Economic Geography is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to publishing original research that advances the field of economic geography. Their goal is to publish high-quality studies that are both theoretically robust and grounded in empirical evidence, contributing to our understanding of the geographic factors and consequences of economic processes. It welcome submissions on a wide range of topics that provide primary evidence for significant theoretical interventions, offering key insights into important economic, social, development, and environmental issues. To ensure the highest quality publications, all submissions undergo a rigorous peer-review process with at least three external referees and an editor. Economic Geography has been owned by Clark University since 1925 and plays a central role in supporting the global activities of the field, providing publications and other forms of scholarly support. The journal is published five times a year in January, March, June, August, and November.
