简介:20世纪七八十年代,英国全民参与的房地产自由市场被撒切尔政府表意为进取时代精神下旨在实现共同财富的民众公意。然而,这种表面上超阶级的民主机制实际上却加剧了阶级区隔。本文以迈克尔·哈特的房地产想象共同体理论为切入点,探讨玛格丽特·德拉布尔所创《大冰期》中的房地产市场背后经济权力的两种并行运行机制:一方面,房地产市场建构的经济利益共同体幻象以自然公正之名诱使小地产商投身纳入性排除的资本游戏;另一方面,以帝国复兴为宏大目标的房地产重建大规模拆迁棚户区、削减福利住房公共支出导致广大底层人民个体民主的合法性剥夺。本文指出房地产市场共同体背后的剥削性生产关系再生产实质,最后阐明德拉布尔政治诗学中"出走"的市场逃逸路径。
