摘　　要：资本的流动性体现国家空间架构内的要素分配。它作为资本主义市场经济运行的基本条件,服务于维护资本家的利益,损害社会弱势群体的利益。在《播种者的寓言》中,弱势的非裔美国人成为资本流动的受害者。资本在不同空间内的流动将不平等的权利分配具象化。罗夫莱多城作为空间表征,代表着统治阶级构想中的城市。在这里,资本作为资产阶级加强统治的政治工具,源源不断地向上层阶级积聚。奥利瓦尔城则属于表征性空间,代表着真实的生活体验:资本由工人流向资本家。资本流动并未实现工人的既得利益,反而将其禁锢在社会底层,成为新的“债务奴隶”。因此,巴特勒将“橡子社区”想象为差异空间,用以批判资本主义晚期的新自由主义制度。The mobility of capital reflects the distribution of elements in the national spatial structure.As a basic condition for the operation of the capitalist market economy,it serves to safeguard the interests of capitalists while harming the interests of socially disadvantaged groups.In Octavia E.Butler's Parable of the Sower,disadvantaged African Americans become the victims of capital mobility.The mobility of capital in different spaces visualizes the unequal distribution of rights.As a spatial representation,Robledo represents the city as conceived by the ruling class.Being a political tool for the bourgeoisie to strengthen its rule,capital keeps accumulating in the hands of the upper class.The city of Olivar belongs to the representational space,which represents real-life experience:capital moves from workers to capitalists.Instead of realizing the vested interests of workers,capital mobility confines workers to the bottom of society so that they become new"debt slaves."Therefore,Butler imagines the"acorn community"as a space of difference to criticize the neoliberal system in the late capitalist period.
