There have been reports recently that residents of a community in Shanghai opposed the construction of a care home for the elderly near the community, because it might have a negative effect on their house prices. It's a typical social conflict that reflects the "not-in-my-backyard" attitude.
近日,有报道称上海一小区居民反对在小区附近建养老院,因为养老院可能会造成房价下跌。这样的社会冲突属于典型的“邻避效应”。
“邻避效应”可以用not in my backyard表示,指居民或当地单位因担心建设项目,如垃圾场(waste collection station)、核电厂(nuclear power plant)、殡仪馆(funeral home)等设施,对身体健康、环境质量和资产价值等带来诸多负面影响,从而激发人们的嫌恶情结,滋生“不要建在我家后院”的心理,及采取的强烈和坚决的、有时高度情绪化的集体反对甚至抗争行为。
