• 【讲座内容提要】

       在上海，人们不仅仅可以看到半殖民地时代建造的、分布全城的外国租界的大量建筑遗产，并且可以居住其间。在紧随其后的社会主义时期，这些建筑的功能发生了变化，以适应当下的需求。其中一部分房屋成为公共建筑，绝大部分被改做大规模的居民与工人人口的住宅。直到改革开放之前的几十年中，情况一直如此。改革开放之后，这些居民可以拥有住房的产权并随意买卖房屋。
       今天，这些建筑成为城市的文化资产，私人企业与国有企业均投入巨资开发这些珍贵的老房子。有些居民拿到足够的补偿之后自愿迁走，然而很多人则不愿意搬迁。在后者中，既有仍待价而沽的居民，也有迷恋社区氛围而不愿离开的居民。讲座将以一个位置绝佳的地产为例，分析居委会在提供公共服务与管理居民行为、情感等方面有限的作为，因此居民不能不自寻活路来维持其自身地位。
       讲座主要分析这些留下来的居民如何与潜在的卖家、租客、开发商以及那些已经搬走、但经常回来看望熟人的老街坊发生互动，处理由于经济政策以及中国城市管理新政策带来的社会突变。讲座选取的案例是一个位于主要商业街区的历史保护社区，其居民来自不同文化与社会经济背景，出于不同原因居住于此，通过案例分析以揭示社区的动态性。
 
About the Lecture
In Shanghai, one can not only see but live in the remnants of the city’ssemi-colonial legacy through a large number of structures built during thatperiod scattered throughout the city where the “glorious” foreign settlementsonce resided. The usage of these buildings had changed to accommodate thedemand of the high-socialist era that immediately followed. While some hadbecome public buildings, most of them had been altered to accommodate theinflux of residents and workers, which had been the case for decades until theopening up and reform era whereby these residents were allowed to own andtherefore trade their houses at will.
Today,private entrepreneurs and public sectors alike are investing heavily on therarity of these old structures as the city’s cultural capital. While someresidents voluntarily move elsewhere having received adequate compensation forgiving up their home for redevelopment, many stay put; among them, there areboth those who would move when the price is right and those who savor the senseof community. As many have argued, this case will exemplify, the localneighborhood committee of a prime real estate area has a limited role in bothproviding the services and governing the movement and sentiment of theseresidents; hence, the residents are resorting to their own methods andtechniques to maintain their status and livelihood.
This talk looks primarily at how the remaining residents interact with the potentialbuyers, renters, and investors, as well as their old neighbors who have already moved out but regularly return to such community to reconvene with their oldacquaintances in dealing and navigating with the abrupt social change broughtabout by both the economic and new state-sanctioned policies governing urban China. What this lecture hopes to reveal is the changing dynamics of ahistorically protected community located in a prime business area whereresidents of diverse ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds driven by differentincentives reside.
