| Περιγραφή: | Smart cities build on visions for using technology to optimise various infrastructural functions and make city management more efficient, sustainable, and reliable. However, scholarship on smart cities has drawn attention to how data-centric planning simplifies the complexity of the urban environment and how a dichotomous approach to smart cities as either top-down or bottom-up may be overly reductive. This paper attempts to remedy this divide by highlighting the horizontal tensions in smart city planning, where tensions around implementing smart technologies appear as multiple actors and discourses converge in creating complex governance structures. We offer a case study of how scalar, temporal and social tensions around implementing smart city technologies are negotiated, based on interviews with employees in a Swedish municipality and several municipal corporations. We elaborate on three themes around time, the role of the municipality and infrastructure to gain a deeper understanding of the governance of and attitudes towards smartification. The interviewees described the complexities of implementing smart technology in reality, spanning various scales and intermingling public and private interests. These issues matter for how the municipality and the municipal corporations work with implementing smart technologies, making it anything but a straightforward process. 智慧城市建立在利用技术优化各种基础设施功能，并使城市管理更加高效、更可持续、更可靠的愿景之上。关于智慧城市的学术研究已经引起了人们对以数据为中心的规划如何简化城市环境复杂性的关注，以及对智慧城市采取自上而下或自下而上的二分法可能会过于简化的关注。本文试图通过强调智慧城市规划中的横向冲突来填补这种鸿沟。在智慧城市规划中，随着多个参与者和话语在创建复杂的治理结构时汇集，就会围绕智能技术的实施出现冲突。基于对瑞典一个市政当局和几家市政公司雇员的采访，我们进行了案例研究，探讨人们如何协商围绕智慧城市技术的实施出现的标量冲突、时间冲突和社会冲突。我们对时间、市政当局的角色和基础设施这三个主题进行了详细阐述，以更深入地了解对城市智慧化的治理和各种态度。受访者描述了在现实中实施智能技术的复杂性，涵盖了各种规模，并融合了公共和私人利益。这些问题关系到市政当局和市政公司如何实施智能技术，这使得这一过程绝不简单。 |
