This article examines the increasingly conflictual relationship between ports and their surrounding communities at a time of wide-reaching infrastructural expansion. It highlights how the centralization of power and logistical gigantism produce deterritorializing frictions, decoupling inhabitants from their territories and creating the conditions for social contestation. It calls for a rethinking of the role of communities in contemporary port-city governance, with an emphasis on imaginaries of re-territorialization produced through social mobilization. I frame the increasing contestation in port cities through a critical approach to logistics, arguing that citizen engagement holds the potential to drastically readdress the port-city relationship. It examines the cases of Genoa and Venice using ethnographic methods and reconstructs a historically in-depth counter-narrative of interactions between port, city and citizen. I contextualize specific frictions between port and city through the rise in social mobilizations. The article shows how social mobilization challenges the status quo in different ways, producing changes and illuminating pathways toward more sustainable forms of coexistence between ports and cities.

有争议的港口城市：热那亚和威尼斯的物流摩擦和公民动员

本文探讨了在基础设施广泛扩张的背景下，港口与其周边社区之间日益加剧的冲突关系。它强调了权力的集中和后勤的巨人主义如何产生去领土化的摩擦，使居民与其领土脱钩，并为社会竞争创造条件。它呼吁重新思考社区在当代港口城市治理中的作用，重点关注通过社会动员产生的重新领土化的想象。我通过对物流的关键方法来描述港口城市日益激烈的争论，认为公民参与有可能彻底重新解决港口与城市的关系。它利用民族志方法研究了热那亚和威尼斯的案例，并重建了港口、城市和公民之间相互作用的历史上深入的反叙事。我通过社会动员的兴起将港口和城市之间的具体摩擦置于背景中。本文展示了社会动员如何以不同的方式挑战现状，产生变化并阐明港口和城市之间更可持续的共存形式的道路。
