초록

This article examines urban agriculture(UA) practices in Seoul from a ‘relational’ economic geography view, which is concerned with variegated economic practices. This article's analysis is particularly built on the ‘different economies’ perspective, which recognizes the importance of non-capitalist economic practices such as UA. For the research, ethnographic data including participant observation records and in-depth interviews were collected at Nodeul Urban Agriculture Park in Seoul from March to September in 2014. A qualitative ‘content analysis’ was also conducted to understand the nature of urban agriculture practices, and this article presents three important findings. First, cultivation practices are found to generate a virtuous cycle of ‘affective agricultural production’ and ‘emotional accomplishments’, which include curiosity, affectionate feeling, eager for recognition, and community spirit. Second, the virtuous cycle is also productive of and associational with ‘practical achievements’(appreciative capacity and self-sufficiency) and ‘socially conscious consumption practices’(consumption changes and sharing). Third, emerging ethics including rural concerns and changing attitude towards urban development are also observed to interact with the production-emotion virtuous cycle. In essence, urban agriculture involves both individual and social accomplishments. These findings reaffirm the importance of production in urban agriculture policy, and also call for a more detailed 'qualitative' research about urban cultivation practices.

Abstract

This article examines urban agriculture(UA) practices in Seoul from a ‘relational’ economic geography view, which is concerned with variegated economic practices. This article's analysis is particularly built on the ‘different economies’ perspective, which recognizes the importance of non-capitalist economic practices such as UA. For the research, ethnographic data including participant observation records and in-depth interviews were collected at Nodeul Urban Agriculture Park in Seoul from March to September in 2014. A qualitative ‘content analysis’ was also conducted to understand the nature of urban agriculture practices, and this article presents three important findings. First, cultivation practices are found to generate a virtuous cycle of ‘affective agricultural production’ and ‘emotional accomplishments’, which include curiosity, affectionate feeling, eager for recognition, and community spirit. Second, the virtuous cycle is also productive of and associational with ‘practical achievements’(appreciative capacity and self-sufficiency) and ‘socially conscious consumption practices’(consumption changes and sharing). Third, emerging ethics including rural concerns and changing attitude towards urban development are also observed to interact with the production-emotion virtuous cycle. In essence, urban agriculture involves both individual and social accomplishments. These findings reaffirm the importance of production in urban agriculture policy, and also call for a more detailed 'qualitative' research about urban cultivation practices.
