- Abstract:
This article analyses the politics of new municipalism in Naples in relation to the constellation of 'new institutions' that has arisen from this politics. These 'new institutions' are illustrative of a politics of the interstices as a distinctive trait of the convergence between city government and social movements in Naples, as the latter have opted for staying neither outside nor inside official institutions and the city government has adapted its conduct to this strategy. To illustrate this point, the article explores the emerging constellation of 'new institutions' in Naples, which is understood as an embryonic form of radical 'face-to-face democracy' (in Murray Bookchin's terms) at the municipal level, that departs from mainstream conceptions of participatory democracy and commons-based democracy. Through this analysis, the article argues that the experience of new municipalism in Naples offers evidence of a kind of participatory urban democracy understood not in a procedural sense but in a genuinely political vein, where civic participation and political conflict productively coexist with institutional creativity.

- Abstract:
本文分析了那不勒斯新的地方自治主义政治与由此政治产生的"新机构"群体的关系。这些"新机构"说明了作为那不勒斯市政府和社会运动之间融合的一个显着特征的间隙政治,因为后者选择既不在官方机构之外,也不在官方机构内部,而市政府已调整了其行为以适应该策略。为了说明这一点,本文探讨了那不勒斯正在出现的"新机构"群体,这被理解为市政层面激进的"面对面民主"(默里·布克钦 (Murray Bookchin) 发明的术语)的雏形,这种民主背离了参与式民主和基于共享的民主的主流概念。通过这种分析,本文认为那不勒斯新地方自治主义的经验提供了一种参与式城市民主的证据,这种民主不是从程序意义上而是从真正的政治脉络中理解的,在这种民主中,公民参与和政治冲突与制度创造力有效地共存。 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
