摘要

随着自驾游日益成为重要旅游方式，汽车作为核心载体深度嵌入旅游系统，但其在旅游网络建构中的能动性尚未被充分揭示。基于行动者网络理论，结合四次长途自驾调研的实证资料，探究汽车在自驾旅游中的物质性及对关系网络的塑造作用。研究发现：汽车通过“流动的栖居之所”重构空间意义，在封闭性与流动性的矛盾中维系游客的安全感与归属感，同时受基础设施与技术系统制约；作为“任务景观塑造者”，其“流动—停泊”节律重塑旅游时间逻辑，推动“景点泛化”并联结游客与社区形成动态消费网络；通过“领地化机制”与“流动能力差异”调节多元关系，构建隐性权力领地并加剧关系不平等。研究揭示自驾旅游是人类与非人类行动者动态交织的异质性网络，为理解自驾旅游现实矛盾及推动可持续转型提供理论与实践参考。

Abstract

With the growing popularity of driving tours as a prominent form of tourism, automobiles, as the core carriers, have become deeply integrated into the tourism system. However, their agency in constructing tourism networks remains underexplored. Drawing on actor-network theory and empirical data from four long-distance driving trips, this study examines the materiality of automobiles in driving tourism and their role in shaping relational networks. The findings reveal three key dimensions: First, automobiles reconstruct spatial meanings as "mobile habitation spaces." Amid the tension between enclosure and mobility, they sustain tourists' sense of security and belonging while being constrained by infrastructure and technical systems.Second, as "taskscape shapers," the "mobility-mooring" rhythm reshapes the temporal logic of tourism, facilitates the "generalization of attractions," and connects tourists with communities to form dynamic consumption networks. Third, automobiles regulate diverse relational networks through "territorialization mechanisms" and "disparities in mobility capacity." Within road spaces, competition for right-of-way between motor vehicles and other road users constructs implicit "power territories," while the speed advantage and technical thresholds of automobiles exacerbate relational inequalities among tourists, local residents, slow travelers, and the natural ecosystem.
