Sumario:城市与生活的关系构成城市意义研究的基本问题域,让生活更美好则为批判与建 构城市意义的核心价值场。历经30年改革开放,中国对'怎么发展城市'已在技战术 上有了一系列实践典范和成功经验,但城市化进程中所滋生出来的、让生活变得更糟 糕的城市问题需要我们反思和澄明人类究竟'为了什么发展城市'的世界性的意义难 题。以生活的名义叩问城市意义,'去生活化'的城市空间批判,倡导一种以'美好生 活'为理念、规范和引领城市空间变迁的新型城市文明形态将构成本文研究的学术思 路和未来憧憬。关键词: 城市意义 城市空间 美好生活 The city-life relationship constitutes the basic problem field of studies of urban meaning, while making life better is a core value field for critiquing and constructing such a meaning. Technically and tactically, China's thirty years of reform and opening up practice have seen a string of successful models and experiences relating to 'How should we develop cities?' Yet problems arising in the course of urbanization and the deteriorating quality of urban life require us to reflect upon and respond actively to the tricky question of meaning, a global issue: 'Why develop cities?' In inquiring into urban meaning in the name of life, this study offers an academic approach and hope for the future through a critique of 'devitalized' urban space and advocacy of a new form of urban civilization that will regulate and guide transformation in urban space under the principle of 'the good life.'
