About

Urban space is a core concept within urban studies and related disciplines, conceptualizing the built environment not merely as physical form but as a dynamic, multi-layered site of social, economic, cultural, and political processes. As a research concept, it investigates the intricate relationships between material structures, human practices, power dynamics, and the production of meaning, serving as a critical framework for analyzing how urban life is constituted, experienced, and transformed through spatial organization and interaction.
