A wonderful global city? Resisting urban regeneration in Olympic Rio
Tóm tắt
This article engages with debates about the role of ‘global cities’ in international relations and in the governance of global capitalism. Much of the discourse on global cities reproduces the hierarchical stratifications of the international system that divide the ‘global’ from the ‘local’ along a North-South or centre-periphery axis. We argue that while Rio de Janeiro’s ‘Porto Maravilha’ urban regeneration project apparently follows the global city model, its failure suggests the articulation of the international and the urban presents complexities that escape recent attempts to rethink world politics from the point of view of cities. In our analysis we consider how Rio’s mayor took up the notion of ‘Olympic City’, articulating narratives of a global urban condition as part of the strategies of integration for an emerging power into world politics and the neoliberal reconfiguration of capitalism. We examine the overlapping events, trajectories and lived realities that interfered with and undermined the coherence of that project, as well as the practices of resistance that produced other representational spaces. We conclude that despite the dominance of global discourses and conceptions regarding urban regeneration, it misses much of the creative politics taking place in ordinary sites in which international and urban meet.
