摘要
针对中国城市公共空间中出现的以广场舞为代表的集体性休闲现象,文章以广州为案例地对其出现的机理与空间行为进行了探究。通过深度访谈、非参与式观察以及问卷调查等方法进行资料收集并运用文本分析工具(ROST content mining)对调查结果进行了深入分析。研究表明,公共空间的稀缺性、休闲场所的商业化、城市生活的疏离化、个体在城市中的无意义感等现状与社会民众的健身需求、自我实现需求、交往需求和填补空虚的需求等存在着一定程度的断裂,而城市公共空间的非商业性和开放性,广场舞休闲所具有的低门槛、集体主义情怀以及狂欢色彩等特征则较好地弥合了以上断裂。在广州市特定的社会文化背景下,大量社会民众选择了在城市公共空间中从事广场舞休闲并进行自我表述与寻求身份认同。

Data were collected using in-depth interviews, non-participant observation and questionnaires.Text analysis tools（ROST content mining） were used to analyze the findings. Drawing on public space and leisure theory, this paper focuses on the causes underlying why carnivalesque dancing has become the most significant public leisure activity in contemporary urban public spaces in China, why dancers prefer to use public space for carnivalesque dancing and why they dance in groups, as well as the meaning and mechanism of this collective leisure activity. Research shows gaps between people s demand for health- building facilities and the lack of public spaces, between the need for communication and fulfillment and the alienation of city life, and between self-actualization needs and the sense of meaninglessness that characterizes city life. These gaps drive people to engage in carnivalesque dancing. In addition, carnivalesque dancing is easy to learn, is lowcost and accords well with Chinese collectivist culture. The practice helps people to fill the emptiness of everyday life and many grassroots residents are devoted to it. In Guangzhou, for example, the social, cultural and political environment became more open a
