都市公園作為協商多樣性的場域：新北市轉型城市地景個案研究

Urban Parks as Arena for Negotiated Diversity: Case Studies of the Transitional Cityscape of New Taipei City

本文主張公園是展現都市變遷及生活動態的重要場域。作者聚焦於台北都會區城鄉移民聚居，晚近經歷都市更新和重劃的鄰里，考察三處性質不同公園的生產和使用，如何體現且塑造了都市場域中的各種差異。作者通過實地觀察和訪談，歸結了以下發現：(1)舊街區的社區公園，以維護和監控的在地勞動支持著內向型的客廳式空間。(2)新興中產社區的「現代」公園，充滿著空間開放感和管理主義之間的張力。(3)都市擴張邊緣的區域公園，有傳統死亡與現代生活元素共存，體現了轉型中的邊界地景。於是，都市公園所在的紋理與節奏，中介了多重差異的協商與生產，乃至於不同都市主體的形塑。更為包容的公園空間規劃，或許仍須在功能性之外考量能兼容差異的曖昧性。

This paper argues that parks are important arenas for manifesting urban transformation and dynamics of everyday life. The study explores three neighbourhood parks in and around a readjustment area of Sanchong District, where rural migrants to Taipei metropolis agglomerate. We examine how the production and use of the parks embody and reshape the differences in the urban arena. Through on-field observation and interviews, it is found that: (1) through residents’labouring on maintenance and surveillance, the park within the old street blocks features an inward-oriented, living-room-like space; (2) the‘modern’park among the new middle-class communities features tensions between spatial openness vis-à-vis managerialism; and (3) the park bordering on the readjustment area features a mix of traditionality and modern life, and manifests a boundary landscape in transition. The textures and rhythms encircling the parks hence mediates the negotiation and production of multiple differences, as well as the shaping of different urban subjects. In this light, a more inclusive planning of park space should consider not only functionality but also ambiguity where differences might remain.
